*Darka takes the amulet and sniffs it.*
<Darka> Hmmm... So what do you want us to do?

*Mira takes the fish from Qanzlo.*
<Mira> Uh... Thanks? *She places it on the metal sheeting.* Van, do you know if we can eat this?

<Morton> I have some small dusk explosives in my suitcase, back at camp. I'll give those to the two of you, and once we've set foot in the city, you run off and detonate them somewhere to draw the attention of the local lawman. I'll make a dash to the port, nick an airship, and we'll meet up there. Simple as that.
Also, naturally, I'd be extremely grateful if none of the others learnt of this little plan. I don't mean to threaten, but grenades aren't the only weapons I keep... We cool?

<Darka> Yes, I understand... *She hands back the amulet.*
<Kadar> So, what's going on?
<Darka> I'll tell you later.
<Kadar> ...

*The mirions follow Morton back to camp, Darka taking some of the strange plant with her, chewing on it as they go.*

<Morton> Alright, I'm back. Couldn't risk the mirions giving away our location, so I went to retrieve them. Are we ready to move on? When's that explosion gonna happen?

*Kayli spots Morton and the two mirion, and raises an eyebrow*

<Kayli> Really? Van said you were taking a leak. Interesting leak, that. With two mirions there to watch? I wonder what REALLY happen- *Gets a stare from Mira as if to say "Be quiet, please"*

*Kayli glances at her watch, which she realises has actually stopped*

<Kayli> Uhm... Soon-ish? *Avoids Morton's gaze, and smacks the watch until it ticks again* I don't know. We will be sure to hear it either way. Any reason for asking?

<Mira> It's been over twenty minutes... Maybe your calculations are out, Kayli.

*Kadar looks at Kayli.*
<Kadar> We were getting some food.
<Darka> Yeah! Morton knows what is edible.

*After around 20 minutes, Seeb re-awakens, groggy as ever. With his vision blurred and his senses slightly disorientated, he attempts to stand and falls flat on his face*

<Seeb> Why am I not dead? *Seeb could barely hear himself think over the over-energetic screeching of the dawn engines* What in the name of... what is this? Is it in pain?

*Above Seeb, the dawn engines were surrounded in swirling black smoke and were red from over-working. Around him, wind seemed to be picking up and disturbing the area*

<Seeb> ...Oh no... NO!

*Seeb scrabbles to his feet and hops away as fast as he can after sensing the intense heat the dawn engines were packing. Knowing he didn't have much time, Seeb tries to get away and into cover as soon as possible*

<Seeb> Trees? No, further. Underground? No time. Give up? No, can't. Run for- silence?

*At this moment in time, the dawn engine got unbelievably louder and louder before going silent. When all seemed fine, with the vengeance of a thousand bombs, the explosion erupted. Seeb wasn't far enough, and got blown away in the blast, crushing his arm against the ground upon landing, feeling his bone snap. His ears were screaming and ringing in pain, and his vision had almost completely darkened due to the dust and smoke.*

<Seeb> *Cough* He... heeelp... *Seeb lies on his back, as the debris falls all around him, grazing and narrowly avoiding him. He lay there, waiting death*


<Kayli> Hmm? Okay, then. I'm not going to bother with asking for an explanation of why he knows. I don't want any more glory days talk... *Shudder*

*Turns attention to Mira*

<Kayli> Me? Wrong about dawn engines? Pfft. It'd take approx 22 minutes and 31 seconds for any real reaction to occur. If only this thing worked... *Points at watch* I'm guessing dawn energy is slightly scarce in this smog... *Sighs* Well, at lea-

*Interrupting Kayli, a slight thundering is heard in the distance which seems to grow louder and louder before silence. Then the unmistakable noise and vibrations of a rather violent explosion*

<Kayli> See, told ya.

*Morton shudders, and instinctively duck a little as he hears shrapnel from the explosion damage the trees back where they came through.*
<Morton> Right. It'd be best to move now. If our raiders weren't there when it blew, they will flock to the place now.
*he begins to walk on*

*Kayli looks in the direction of the explosion, seeing nothing in the smog*

<Kayli> *Sigh*, wish I could have seen it. I guess the mirions will be flocking to see what the noise was. Van you need a hand there? *Offers Van a hand*

<Qanzlo> *takes a bite of the fish* hmm hold on. I'm gonna go get some water

Qanzlo hops back to the river and then realized he doesn't have anything to carry the water back he heads farther into the forest and grab some tree branches and some leaves but doesn't realized he's heading straight back to the ship crash sight again.

*Van looks a little nervous and scared when Kayli describes skinning and tribal dancing. Before he gives away the fact he's scared he gets a fish question.*

<Van> Not too sure. If we do eat a little after we cleaned it and cooked it. We'd probably only get a little sick. Personally I'm wouldn't try it until you get really hungry.

*When Kayli offers to help Van up he grabs her hand and his walking stick.*

<Van> Thanks. Oh and once again I said he was probably taking a leak.

Can I help you with something?
*a figure creeps through the dense foggy underbrush silently, whiskers twitching searching for any movement, behind him a few more figures appear in the fog when suddenly*

<Mirions #1-3> Bee bo ba barab boop, ba ba bara boop! Bee bo ba barab boop, ba ba bara boop!

*Ml'Daar spins around with an irritated look on his face*

<Ml'Daar> For the last time, that is NOT our theme song, now that's enough of that! We're on a scouting mission!

<Mirion #1> Aww, how can you NOT like that song? These humans have some funky tunes!

<Mirion #3> Lighten up, sir. We've been out here for hours and there's been nothing but a few jhorvils running about. It's not like anything's going to suddenly jump out of the fog and bite our faces off.

*no sooner does the Mirion finish speaking than an ear-splitting explosion rocks the area and several shards of metal go flying overhead. Ml'Daar and his squad drop to the ground instinctively, having been through many such explosions before and suspecting human involvement*

<Ml'Daar> Nothing coming out of the fog, eh'? Come on, let's go check out the source of that explosion. Keep alert and check for any other signs of movement.

*Helps lift Van to his feet*

<Kayli> Well, taking a leak or not, I'm not gonna ask. I don't WANT to ask. So, head-count. Me, Van, Mort, Mira, Mirion 1 and 2.... Where'd that 3rd one go? Ah well. Lead the way then, Mort.
