Assistant instructors (Part 3)

The mission:

Third period would start and the kids would be directed to the back lot of the academy. A heavily wooded mountainous area. It was there they would find Tadara and Katsumi waiting. Most of the students at this point preferred Katsumi due to Tadara's lack of emotional connection to well...anything. The bee would buzz in his ear as he would blink and let his dark eyes settle on the children. Once they gathered and formed lines Tadara would explain that Katsumi would be covering practical lessons for surviving such as creating shelter and how to hide smoke when cooking. Identifying tracks and what not. While they worked on these Tadara would be explaining a series of information on what was edible and what was not. Including plants one shouldn't touch or if one was stealthy enough could be used to cause certain effects to their enemies food supply. General information for long term survival in the woods. Or short term espionage in the long run. He would wait for Katsumi to begin the lesson and once the practical part of his lesson began Tadara would have gathered a series of herbs and mushrooms as well as some pictures of certain plants not kept in the academy for good reason.

Tadara would begin explaining by having the children try some edible roots. This they did not appreciate much to be honest. It would keep them alive but aside from some berries most of what was on the table simply tasted terrible. One could survive on it but the pallet did not appreciate it. Of course he would explain some herbs to rub on wounds to prevent infection and show some more poisonous items in the photos for sabotage on their enemies. Including some psychedelic's commonly found in nature. Even ways to attract local predators to an enemy camp. Without considering he was speaking to children he explained that a hallucinating enemy was unlikely to be able to fight off a predator well. Terrorize the enemy and their morale would drop. Poison their supply and they would be starved out and weakened. There were ways to draw out a fight and eliminate an enemy indirectly. He was rather straightforward and detailed about some of the effects much to the horror of most of the kids. When they departed for lunch most of them didn't have an appetite. Still Tadara saw little issue with it as they prepared for the next lesson.
