October 8, 2:10 AM. Inside of the Akademie für Männer.
Hanna and Lotta went back in silence. Hanna sat near the extinguished fire. She was cutting the vines with the saber. Lotta was on the forest chopping logs. She returned with sufficient wood to lit up the fire again. After fifteen minutes, she returned from the improvised bedroom with her pistol. Hanna was making the bow string.
She had cut three strings from the vines, and another one that was the main string, that was a little thicker. She placed the main string on the ground, completely stretched. Then, she put two thinner strings on the left of the main string, and the last on the right side of it. Then, she started doing a knot, called Four Strand Square Sinnet. The process is to bound one of the ends together. Then, the process is simple. Cross the pair of strings in one direction. Between them, cross the second pair of strings in the opposite direction. Then, repeat the process until the strings end.
