- I don't really know. Let us pull over before driving into it. Now, Xankarvo, can you give me some cloth from your robe...
Pull over. Pull another rod from the sphere, make some gas in a bottle, wrap it up with some cloth, soak cloth into gas, make torch let Xan handle torchmaking. Sip some gas.

You grab one of the rods and attempt to pull it out. You pull with all your strength but just as it starts to budge your hand slips and all you manage to do is punch yourself square in the nose. It's now bleeding oil all over the dang place and you're pretty sure it's broken.
"Hey now, if you want to start a fire that's my job. Let me do it, I'm guaranteed better than you at it even with only one working arm."
Do the torchmaking thing so I can feel useful. Give him a bit of cloth, though. Consider the usefulness of a robe that regrew itself when torn.
A regrowing robe would be very useful. Too bad you don't have one. At this point you're just moving slowly toward a miniskirt.

You make a torch out of some alcohol, cloth and your own arm bones. Pretty metal. Probably won't hurt the arm. Probably.
Look around to make sure nothing sneaks up on us.
You keep watch from the back of the jeep, sitting on top of the roll cage.
Hyenakles sighs. "Alright. Hold this."

Approach the barrier, and try to discern exactly what it is we're looking at. Be ready to bolt if anything happens.
You take the torch from Xan and walk over to the wall of fog. The fog is impenetrably thick; you can't see anything through it and the light of the torch illuminates only the outer layer. You wave the torch through the fog and it offers no resistance but doesn't disperse. Doesn't damage or in any way distort or mess up the torch either though. Hmm.
