Prologue to Grunts Ghost The sky was burning. No, not burning, glowing red from the sun's ray, like the blood of a fresh cut on ones finger. A storm was brewing but not of this reality, devouring the universe. You could see silent lightning strobes in the distance. Grunt turned towards it and the rain plastered him in the face, he winced at the sight. Hesitation lingered in the black air. Grunt pulls his storm coat over his head as he leaves the tent, partly to fend off the rain, and partly to cover his weapons.

Take the right-hand cord over the front of the loop. 5 Weave the left cord under, over and under the long loop to come out at the right-hand side. 6 Repeat from step 4 until you are close to the bottom of the loop.
