After calming down on all that's been happening, you tell Knife your story one by one. Meanwhile, Player tries to patch up Pantyhose. (4) You see a few band-aids lying on the lower shelf. You take them and apply them to his wound. He thanks you, and runs over to play with his sister. Laliona, Teddy, and Clock, on the other hand, look for anything of note, something to cook with, and food and water in general. (6) (6) (4) You find an entire box of matchsticks and another box of tooth-picks. You find a five cans of food, as well as two bottles of water.
After a conversation with Teddy, Player (2) tries to roll his eyes but crosses them instead, looking like (1) an artard. You all reassemble in the cart and start going to the town which Knife told you about, it is a long journey. A boring journey. A journey of mystery, of wonder, of an annoying little boy named Pantyhose singing loudly. To kill the time, Knife decides to tell you about the raiders.
"Those raiders were called Edi's Sons. Vile cultists who worship their Dark Leader Edi, the anathema to Tes'la. My grandchildren were on their way to becoming Tes'lan Guardians, but word got out and soon, the Edi's Sons tried to kill them before they could bolster the ranks of Tes'la."
"I could've fought those raiders, Granddad! I would've gone all like POW! then BAM! then HYAH!" says Pantyhose, whose voice drifts away as you slowly lose attention from him.
"No. You couldn't. Anyways, the town we're heading to is called China Town. They mostly sell porcelain and plates for a living, and for a high price mind you! The are a well funded town, and I believe that they still have that decent doctor working there. I will be able to pay for your treatments, as compensation."
After a while, you finally make it to China Town. It is a beautiful shelf-side town with many cutleries and porcelain figures. The shelves are connected to each other with beautiful glass bridges held up by strong, artisan Popsicle sticks. Your cart is stopped right outside the entrance, by a regiment of guards armed with long toothpicks adorned with shards of glass. Their Captain walks up to you and says:
"What are you doing here, Exiles? We will not tolerate unsupervised criminals!" he says.
"Worry not, Captain. I am here to watch over them. We are here to merely amend wounds," Knife says.
The Captain looks at the old man with a look of smugness.
"Sir, I don't think an elderly man such as yourself should-", he is cut off when he sees Knife's knife. "I'm sorry sir! I did not know you were one of Them! Men, let them pass!"
He lets you pass, and you exit your cart and enter the beautiful town. Knife offers to lead you to the doctor, unless you want to visit someplace else first. He tells you about the inn, the artisans' market, and the farm. These are the places that supervised Exiles are allowed to go to.
