After Mars had done his job, he immediately got on his horse and headed to the pond where he and Emmelyn were resting previously.
When he got there, Mars saw Emmelyn crouched down on the ground. The girl took out her knife, then with a skillful movement, she killed the rabbit with one stab. Blood immediately drenched the girl's two hands.
Mars imagined other girls would feel uncomfortable with blood, let alone kill animals. But Emmelyn didn't seem bothered at all. She was just nonchalantly washing her hands in the pond. Then she skillfully skinned the fat rabbit.
"Why are you standing there?" asked Emmelyn when she realized Mars had arrived. "Can you light a fire? And make a place to grill the meat later."
Mars nodded. "Of course."
He then sat crouched beside the girl and looked around him. There were some dry twigs and stones that he could use to make a fire. After gathering everything he needed, Mars then started a fire.
