*Morton, with his hat obscuring his face as he dangles in his own coat some three metres from the ground, is very awake. He is running possible scenarios through his head, planning, and scheming what might happen when they get to Cydham- and how he will try to turn that situation to his advantage to make a swift escape.*
<Morton> The tricky part will be to get Darka and Kadar unto the city's lower layer so they aren't found and arrested immediately. From then on, when the officials come to interrogate us, I just have to stall until they use their bombs. I make a dash for the port, and steal an airship.
*he rolls around, fidgeting, and pretends to snore a little*
<Morton> I need a plan B, if they don't manage to use the grenades, or if the lawmen don't concern themselves well enough with it... I'll need a hostage, someone who isn't likely to fight back. ...The medic girl will do. She isn't trash like us, so they won't just shoot her on the spot, and she probably doesn't know how to punch me in the face so it hurts either. Once we've made a getaway, I'll explain to her that I didn't intend to hurt her, and drop her off at a bigger city. Sounds like a plan.
*he snores a little louder, then turns around again, and continues plotting*

*After about two hours Van stops marching, and starts to mumble about his leg. He lays down massaging his leg for about an hour, making sure he looks around to keep everyone safe. Van then gets up and marches for another hour. After a total of four hours Van takes the pain killer he pocketed away. He then walks over to the tree Mort's sleeping on and starts to knock on it.*

<Van> Mort wake up. It's your shift come on you had four hours to sleep. If you still need sleep, I'll take another shift after yours. Just give me at least three hours.

<Morton> *gets up and carefully climbs down from the tree* Alright, thanks.
*He starts his shift, and waits until Van has gone to sleep, then walks over to the mirions, checking around one last time, and wakes them up*
<Morton> *whispering* Come on. We need to talk.

*Kayli has many weird micro-dreams which don't really make sense. In this specific dream, she was next to a rock which had a top hat on. Kayli and the rock were discussing the advantages of dawn energy over the fossil fuels used back on earth. Suddenly, the rock spluttered and coughed. Slightly confused and concerned, Kayli put her palm on the rock to comfort it and ask it what was wrong. The rock shattered at her touch, and the top hat fell off and out of sight. Worried now, Kayli slowly observed the crumbled rock and immediately spotted the oddly coloured plant with the curly branches leaking out of the rubble. The plant looked at Kayli and then sprang to her neck, contracting around and sinking in before she could even gasp. She struggled for a moment, unable to breathe before scaring herself silently awake*

<Kayli> ARGGHH WHAT THE... Huh? Where am I!? What? *She notices her respirator has slipped off her mouth and round her neck* Damn, that scared the shit out of me...

*Upon slowly adjusting her respirator around her mouth again, she sneakily looks around, seeing a black figure standing over the spot the mirion had chose to sleep. Kayli could make out the hissing of whispering, but couldn't hear what was being said. Regardless, she slowly tucks herself up, wide awake and watching.*

*Kadar is the first to wake, he sits up and stretches.*
<Kadar> It's still dark...
*Darka mumbles and rolls over, curling up. Kadar pokes her.*
<Darka> Mmmm leave me aloooone.
<Kadar> Wakeup. *He whispers.*
<Darka> Alright alright... *She rolls onto her back and opens her eyes.*
<Kadar> *Standing* What is it, Morton?

*Mira stirs at the sound of whispering, but doesn't wake up.*

<Morton> *still whispering* Keep your voices low. Here. *he sneaks a pair of small dusk grenades into the mirions' hands* Don't let the others see. They aren't in danger like the three of us, they wouldn't understand.
*he takes out some old, battered paper from his suitcase, and folds it out- it appears to be the general layout of a stilt city, with russian text all over it.*
<Morton> We'll work with this. Most cities are built like this, and even if they add levels, or platforms, they keep this as a foundation. While we are going up on the staircases of the stilt system, the two of you will sneak away from the group, and enter the sewage system at this point here.
Once there, you'll find a way to get up to the surface, at either of these two locations; Close to these are the marketplace and the church- if this city has one. There will be a commotion if you blow things up here. That ought to give me time to steal a ship at theport, this place here. I'll fly over the marketplace and get you two out.
Timing is crucial, so try not to be pinned down, or I won't be able to get you out of there. Do you know how to use the explosives?

*Darka looks bemused.*
<Darka> No...
<Kadar> And we don't have any pockets, either...

<Morton> Fine, I'll hold on to them until we get there. You use them like this... *he puts all but one away, and explains the parts of the grenade in layman's terms to the mirions, how to remove the safety measures and when they go boom.* Got that?

<Kayli> Something is definitely going on with those 3. I don't like it. Not one bit. Best stay out of it unless I spot it happening again. Damned Morton scum.

*Kayli settles back down and starts staring into the darkness above, feeling slightly empty inside*

Can I help you with something?
*Mirion #2 turns Seeb over to Ml'Daar and gets up before going over to Bolask dragging a large bag*

<Arkan> He's not dead yet, Bolask, but he will be if we don't get him proper medical attention soon. Here's the bag you wanted, but why exactly can't you carry it with me now?

<Ml'Daar> I see, so we're lucky to have gotten much of anything if other raiders got here first. Shame, it would have been nice to have been able to steal and figure out how this works. Would've been quite helpful for our tribe. Anyway, let's get the spoils together and bring this Mirion back to the village. You there, help Bolask and Arkan get the salvaged parts together and haul it back. I don't want to hang around any longer than we have to if there's been other raiding parties here. The last thing we need is to instigate a turf war.
