  • LEAN: You lean on the tiller of your crossbow, with the prod resting on the ground. You take the opportunity to inspect the release nut so that it spins freely.
  • POKE: You grab the bowstring of your hickory crossbow and pull it back to full draw. Taking aim at a nearby target you release it with a loud *snap*!
  • PULL: You grab the bowstring of your hickory crossbow and give it an experimental pull.
Utterly unsatisfied, you tighten the string at each nock until the draw is correct.
  • RUB: You grab a cloth and buff the tiller of your crossbow until it gleams.
