Merlin accepted the quest
Of course, he already kne to skin animals, but he didn't knoould happen if he decided to
"Please grab one of the skinning knives from the shelf behind you" Tuli instructed, "And you may wash your hands in the basin behind you"
Merlin did as he was instructed, washi+ng his hands before picking out a skinning knife that felt co all of Tuli's instructions
"Start by turning the beast onto its back" Tuli began running through the steps of skinning an ani to the main step "The next step is to split the hide Cut from the lower jaw all the way to the animal's rear Be careful to ans"
An old ranger that Merlin was acquainted with in the previous timeline once told him that mammals, hu creatures was a si as they fit his description of a fleshy donut, the technique was ultimately the same
Despite hisaniiven the task whenever he partied up with Merlin or the rest of the guild Merlin learnt a lot frouild several years later

As the world around hian floating in an endless black void, and once he felt solid ground he opened his eyes once ht of an endless white rooreen field and rolling hills as far as the eyes could see He could feel wind gently caressing his skin as it blew past
This was a sight he didn't expect to see, at least not for another year
