"Are you okay? Did that tree seem more alive than normal?"
Doug helps up the person who just fell.
"We should probably get some fire going. Already have some shelter and water in that cave, so fire's the next thing."
Start scavenging along the forest floor for fire starting supplies. Brush away the layer of needles and moss to look under it.
"I could probably start a fire with my glasses, if it's a very sunny day and I have good tinder."
Look for rocks. Any sharp flint rocks would be a jackpot, but keep any rocks I find. Pile them up near the cave entrance.
Also keep any sticks, especially ones that could be used as a torch handle. I know there aren't any good stout branches, but there might be some smaller ones that can still make a good torch handle or firewood. Make a pile of sticks near the cave entrance next to the rocks.
And keep an eye out for any litter, you would be surprised how much garbage there is out in the deep wilderness. A tin can would be great.
