Simple Bow
The Simple Bow does 4 damage an arrow, from 6 paces. You fire it from a distance, 10 stamina an arrow against 20 for a sword swing, but it cannot replace the sword you need to start a battle (see Combat).
Unconfirmed: whether you can make it. It has a recipe at the Woodworking Workbench I, 4 Sticks and 2 Flax Thread at Building mastery 2, but the recipe has to be unlocked and nothing in the game files unlocks it.
The second zombie the astrologer gives you in the port chapter holds one; whether you can take it off the zombie is Unconfirmed.

Notes

- Studying it costs 2 Science and gives 10 green.
