Do we happen to see any dragon droppings anywhere, like chewed up bones, poop, claw marks, etc that could tell us where it might have went?

I feel like this probably wasn't a dragon, unless dragons are dramatically more magical than we've been lead to believe.

I now feel shooting all our cannons into the pit of doom was exactly the right decision, to get a parting shot at the hellwurm that did this before it went too deep into the earth to follow, heat and pressure reforming the tunnel long before we get there.

You'll be leading the away team yourself, and bringing along Zaphidor, Anastasi, Strix, Volter, and a dozen soldiers. Crik has command of the Rumbler while you're away with Pacitar as his second.

THE RIGHT HAND

"So does he have a vow of silence or what?" Zaphidor asks.

"The Confessor's order is-- was the highest power in Uchuam," the Uchuami Praetor says. "She is the last of her order."
"So it's a she?"
"That's right." The Praetor ties a gold-scabbard panga to his waist. "Every word a Confessor says, according to Uchuami dogma, is law, and inscribed in the Golden Pages of the Holy Book itself. They choose their words very, very carefully."
The Confessor nods.
"She has no need to hold back any more." Anastasi is helping you into your breastplate. "Customs and law only have import when an order exists to enforce it and a people exists to be governed by them."
"That's the difference between the perspective of a Pirate and a Confessor," the Praetor says. "To her they now have a hundred times more import."



"Oh no. No no no."
Volter steps in front of you and raises his hand as Pi Xui strides down the wall toward the group. "No, Pi Xui. Stay here. Talk to Pacitar or something. Interview him."
"Volter, please," Pi Xui draws a traveling cloak across himself. "This is exactly the sort of thing we're here to investigate!"
"I thought that was the local cuisine," you say.
"I am a dedicated scholar of the stomach I admit," Pi Xui says. "But my kitchens at home are stocked and stuffed. My work in the Wastes is with the Tide! And its study, as well as the study of its postdiluvian phenomena, is among my highest passions. I can be of eminent use to this expedition."
"I can't be watching you the whole time," Volter says.
"I am aware your attention is going to be pointed elsewhere, Volter," Pi Xui says. Volter self-consciously removes his hand from your waist. "I can stay out of the way. I survived the siege of Anabas, didn't I? Iron Mantis, I beg you: my research requires this and you require my research. Whatever made that abyss: do you really think it was just a dragon?"
You adjust a glove. "What was it, then?"
"That is what I am asking you to allow me to ascertain."
"Your father charged me to keep you safe," Volter says. "And we both know I would lay down my life for that charge. Only most of the time I ain't doing that I'm talking you down from harebrained poo poo like this. PLEASE just stay on the robot."
Pi Xui looks to you pleadingly. "Please. Miss Mantis?"

1 You say:
A Listen to your handler, Pi Xui. Stay on the Rumbler.
B I want him along, Volter. We can look after him.

Iiiinteresting. Got us a researcher on our hands! I think we brought enough dudes that we can keep him as secure as we ourselves are, at least.

Assign a couple of the soldiers to just watch him.
Where did Uchuam get its water from? For that matter, where did Anabas? It sounds like the red tide is all around this area, but surely remaining water sources must be securely isolated from it?


All this arises from one basic question: What sort of ground were both cities built upon? If it was in large part the red tide itself, perhaps the tide is changing? And of more immediate concern, if Anabas is built similarly, our most valuable asset may be in danger.

Yeah!, and you can hold his hand the whole time and if there's danger you can bamf him back up top and then come back down and help us murder whatever needs to be murdered.

I can only assume we are doomed because we voted to explore a mysterious sinkhole and it's going to collapse further and LVED is depressed by the prospect of posting about it. I'm staying subscribed to this regardless.
