Would you help me search for a fairy cave on an August moon and a low low tide?

Title: Defense [10] Rating: G Word Count: 151 Pairing: Circlecest Round/Fight: 4/A Warnings: Summary: Sandry held a wooden bow tight in her hand as Briar guided her in notching the arrow. Notes: Given Briar's knives and Daja's staff, I occasionally wonder what weapons Sandry and Tris would carry, beyond their powers.
Sandry held a wooden bow tight in her hand as Briar guided her in notching the arrow.
“Aim for Daja’s target and be careful of your firm arm. This is the sort of thing you can pick up by trial and error too; you can almost teach yourself.” He stepped back.
Sandry felt the air around them cease stirring; Tris had channelled it away from them in a dome, so Sandry could practice without interference. Tris, Daja and Briar watched on as Sandry pulled back the arrow between her fingers.
“Here goes nothing,” she announced, half expecting immediate failure as she had faced with the other weapons she had attempted to learn. She took aim at the target, took a breath and let go. The arrow shot toward the target and lodged. Not in the red centre or the inner gold-then-green rings, but in the outer blue one.
“You got Tris!”
