Glowing tunnel 1Use LED flashlight, and start going through the tunnel, looking for any signs of civilization.
Weighting your options you choose to follow wet foot prints leading to squarish tunnel. After few sharp turns it opens into a wel lit tunnel. Moss on the ground is glowing teal light that is overshadowed with while light that's coming from nowhere. Thin veins of gold run across walls and ceilings, various beetles, flies and caterpillars make their home in the moss. Thin muddy brook flows forward from previous cave along edge of the tunnel.
The only real sight of civilization however is a middleaged man laying dead on ground. You recognize his trenchcoat and fedora. He was the one few who survived the ride in the airplane with you. Looking closer you see his clothes and hat are glowing slightly, and there's something glowing in his briefcase that he's still holding.
The city in darktake of all of my clothes, bury them and all of my equipment except for a small peice of det-cord and a remote detonater, then mark where I buried them. Then set up a small det-cord charge connected to a remote detonater, a few meters away from wear I buried my stuff, then hide the remote detonater on my person.Then skirt around the city, giving it a wide birth, while I try to diguise my voice.
All clothes? Okay, if you say so. You dig a hole with your bare hands and dump
everything you have into the hole, except piece of det-cord and a detonator for it. After burying your stuff, you memorize its location and bury your remaing piece of explosives near it.
[Explosives: 3] You hastily connect the detonator to the piece of det-cord before hiding it. Not your best job, but that's the price of haste. Proceeding clockwise around the city you refresh your memory about disguising your voice.
New skill: Disguising: [4] Trained.
Well, it's about as good as you were trained for. There's plenty of space for improvement, but you are confident you can fool the fat man.
Eddie nods, looking rather defeated. "I... I see. Well, thank you for doing what you can. Is there someone I can talk to that coordinates the city's defense? There is a dangerous individual nearby I must warn them of."
"I don't know. Maybe. You have to ask around. We are poor folk here so we don't have much in ways of firearms here. But we are creative." The old doc says with grin.
[Spot: 3] Now that you have time to look around you spot stairs in far corner accompanied what looks like business signs. There's probably another store in upstairs or downstairs, but you can't see clearly enough.
Engraved cave"Eat up Wilson! You look famished!"
Join the feast. perhaps try to cook my bit of panda.
[4] Mm, it's not that bad, if you consider your situation. Fresh warm bloody flesh could taste better if cooked properly, but that doesn't seem to be part of the King's culinary culture.
Upon recognizing his old pal, Brother Marcel smiles and calls out.
"Hey Joe! Nice work on that panda! Endangering them fuckers right and proper, I see."
He slips out of the shadows on his crutch.
"Way I see it, if the Lord liked 'em that much, he'd have made 'em more durable, eh? Or at least made 'em look less amazing as coats, huh?"
Greet Joe amicably. Compliment him on his attire and exquisite ability at murder.
That you do. As you do so Joe cuts pieces of panda's flesh and eats them raw. That man is
true survivor.
Continue to wait.
"Little man! You around? Joe here says he's sorry for scaring you like that!" Brother Marcel shouts to the cave around here. "Maybe he'll forgive you, ya never know," he adds as an aside to Joe.
(NOTE TO GM: Do the following only if Sonny can hear Brother Marcel, otherwise do my previously posted action)
Sonny hears the monk, and yells back:
"Huh!? Who's Joe? Hold on, I'm coming!"
Approach cautiously.
If this was in overworld you wouldn't hear him, but caves seem to have good acoustics. Granted, all trees and grass here eats much strength out of a good yell, but it remains barely clear enough for you to recognize and understand.
It's... an interesting sight to see. A dog and crazy man eating raw corpse a skinned bear in light of glowing rock... The monk standing nearby, watching. At least Joe is using his knife.
