Wilderness Survival; Thursday, Second Period [02/10].
While Gladio had started this course thinking he'd be pretty big on the whole actual outdoors concept of it, he was quickly realizing that the Danger Shop was actually pretty useful for making sure his survival scenarios went according to plan...especially now that he wasn't stuck with a couple dozen chocobos everywhere whenever he used it. So it was back into the fake wilderness again that morning, though the weather itself seemed to reflect the weather outside pretty closely, just with a very clear and imminent threat of rain.
Which they would definitely be using in a little bit.
"Alright," Gladio grinned at the students, "so we've covered some hiking, we've covered fires, we've covered shelter, and the next thing we're going to cover that's pretty important to wilderness survival is water. You know, that thing that most of us kind of need to live. Ideally, you'll always be prepared with a canteen or a hydration pack, like one of these great ColemanTM brand options," lifted up to show them for great ad revenue potential. "But that's not always going to be the case. Or you may misjudge how much water you've brought with you or you've gotten lost and drained through it pretty quickly, but the good thing is, you've got options, no need to die of dehydration. So, today, we're going to talk about the best ways to find water in the wild in a few different scenarios, and, even more important, how to properly purify your water, because it's all well and good to make it out of the woods nice and hydrated, but not if you're going to just turn around and get sick because of it. Alright," he grinned, turning a little and waving his arm to get them to follow him up the slope of the wooded mountainside they were currently standing on, "let's get moving!"
Because of course this was going to be a lesson taught while hiking! Multitasking!
