Campfire Cooking In Another World Novels & Stories

Only golden sunlight and a gentle, celestial melody. Lucas emerged from within the sun. His glowing body now looked like transparent crystal. He lifted me into his arms. “Sophia… we won. The darkness is gone.” As we drifted in that peaceful void, I glanced through a window and saw our small hut—burned to ashes. But strangely, we felt no sorrow. Together, we began searching for a new home. But peace never lasts. One night, while I was cooking, I heard heavy mechanical footsteps outside. I stepped out—and froze.

The snow kept falling. However, instead of big flakes, there were small particles of white that progressively coated the earth white. The camp was as warm as early summer since a massive campfire had been built in the centre. Large portions of meat were skewered on sticks of wood as everyone, including the recently released prisoner, joined in. They were too scared to speak and sat silently waiting for their meat to cook. Their eyes were bright. Perhaps that was the first meat they had eaten in years.

“I know. I know. If they are abadoned, we burn them off, but if activities are still going on, we will find a way to glean information and report it to the others. We will not engage. Our job is to find your mom. We might get distracted if we engage. We will leave the fighting to the others back at the pack.” Miriam exhaled in relief then, causing Olivera to chuckle. “Scaredy-cat.” Miriam huffed. “I’m not scared. I just don’t want us to lose sight of our chief goal. You are easily distracted with matters like this…” Olivera twitched her nose, and jabbed her friend by the side. “So when do we burn…” “Now!” Olivera said, and with a snap of her fingers, the camp caught flame. Miriam made sure t

Then they turned, gesturing toward the fire. “Bring them. But keep your hands where I can see them.” Like I had the strength to reach for a weapon anyway. --- The Camp The fire hit like a fist to the chest. Not the heat—I barely felt that through the bone-deep ache—but the smell. Smoke, charred meat, something savory simmering in a battered pot. My stomach clenched tight, reminding me I hadn’t eaten since before the ridge. Kaia lowered Isabella carefully onto a bedroll the soldiers spread out near the fire. I knelt down with the kid, cradling them into the warmth. Their small body shivered against me, but at least their breathing deepened, no longer that fragile rasp.

By the time that we have visited almost everyone in the camp, dusk is starting to fall all around us. Standing in the center of the camp, Violet and I have drug massive tables out into the open. We placed small cakes and candies onto the tables that were donated by the local bakery, even though the baker insisted that this was an awful idea. Traipsing into the woods, Violet and I drag back large logs and roll them into the firepit in the center of it all. Carefully Violet lights the fire and we stand, alone in the center of the rogue camp and hold our breaths.

They cry, and I’m fairly sure more of the girls join us. After we all finish crying, we set up camp and start cooking, the large pot bubbling in the fire. The meat is mixed with water, some of the dried supplies, and some herbs the girls gathered. We’re all looking forward to real hot food tonight. Already we’ve been sharing around some of the fried meat, and several of the girls remaining in wolf form have been eating the remains of the carcass. No one will have an empty belly tonight. The camp settles in for the night quickly. I think the emotions have exhausted the others as much as they have me.

I get up a little before when I do normal do I'm not a morning person, and it s good thing that noone is around me or their will get a dirty look if they talk to me. My brothers have nightmare about my death eyes. A lake was a long way from the camp set, after getting some water and starting the fire after having to re-make it from last night, I found a large stone to put in the fire after the one that I was using was gone. When the water was boiling and I was looking for the fish that was in my bag wrap up in a old cloth I found that I get free at the maker that was near the lake. The same way that I cooked fish before in the past when I was in hiding. I found some sticks on the groun

' She learned to step light, avoiding twigs that might crack underfoot, moving like a shadow in the underbrush. Meals were basic but satisfying. They'd drag kills back to the campfire spot—a wide circle of stones by a trickling stream where flames crackled high at night. Sia helped gather dry wood, her hands blistering at first until they toughened up. The meat roasted on sticks, fat dripping and sizzling, filling the air with smoky, savory smells that made her mouth water. She'd eat her share with greasy fingers, the juices running down her chin, feeling full and alive in a way she'd never known before. Nights dropped cold fast, the stars popping out like diamonds on black velvet. Huddled b

The warriors already had the camp set up, and it made me realise that if by chance I was killed in the outing by the strange creature, life would just go on. The smell of roasted meat and freshly baked bread wafted through the air, chasing the evil thought out of my head as soon as it came. My eyes scanned the camp in the darkness, taking in the sight of warriors gathered round the fire, their faces illuminated only by the flickering of flames.

“That’s admirable of you.” Dai grunted, but didn’t reply. Instead, she sank into silence. When it was obvious she had no intention of talking, at least for a while, I turned my attention to my rumbling stomach. It was interesting trying to figure out how to cook the MRE as I struggled with it during the last of the fading light, relieved it didn’t require a stove or fire to heat. It seemed crazy to build a fire in a tree, even if I confined it to a single branch.
