There were lots of words, and Zeke found it difficult to really pay attention. Really though, how hard could this composting thing be? It was just stuff, put together... apparently not all WILLY NILLY... instead it was LAYERED.

There were LAYERS of stuff, and they were WET and then there was the MANURE.

Easy.

Too easy.

Was this their whole lesson? He was going to ace it.

Getting started, Zeke placed down his twigs first, because... that's what they were supposed to do, right? And then followed that up by sprinkling a layer of grass in his crate first. There. Soil. Twigs. Grass. And then with his next layer, which was coffee grounds, and then the next layer of mouldy cake - this one he was particularly pained to sprinkle. Of course, his sprinkling perhaps wasn't the best. Cake was lumpy and uneven and so there were areas where it was higher than others, but he tried.

Now.

Water? He needed water, right?

Zeke cast aguamenti, ending its flow once he had a generous drizzle across every inch of his compost. There were still more layers to come, so hitching up his gloves, he considered his next moves. Should he mix it up further? Or continue with the same layer pattern?
