Re: X82-37R: Waterfallter Return
The path to the both the ruins and the library is the same for most of the way. It is only as you near the ruins that the 'path' diverges.
Group One (Kyle, Carter and Jason) heads off to the right, towards the library, as it was on the edge of the city in that direction.
Kyle has a bit of a problem locating the library entrance again, as he sealed it up when he left. Also, he didn't take a straight route to it before, but had to follow the cryptic trail of markers. At least he can follow that trail again.
Once he reaches it, he opens the entrance again with no problem.
Group Two (Coleman, Al, Travis and the medical team) heads off to the left, to where Sarnak is trapped in the machine.
Travis has no trouble finding the same building again. He can still pick up the residual thoughts of those who activated the psionic launchers, even though they are long gone. He's beginning to understand what happened. The thoughts are more like echoes or reflections that 'bounced' off the devices and have kept bouncing around the 'psionic shielding' of the city for all these years. They get fainter and fainter the more years pass.
He picks up Sarnak's thoughts as he approaches the building.
~Greetings, Friend Travis! The Librarian said you would return. I was not sure. I could think of no reason why you would return. I have learned much conversing with the Librarian. Much of it I knew once but forgot over the passage of time.~
~The Library does not have any knowledge about minds trapped in machines, so it could not provide any data on how to extract one. I hope you have good news in that regard.~
Group Three remains behind at the settlement and sets up a bivouac, posts watches and sends out 2-man patrols for any area where a Gou'uld ha'tak might land.
When those are in the camp, they talk to Crom and the Cromar, careful not to let any 'tech' loose, and certainly not without Crom's approval. He lets the Cromar use the radios to talk to each other over a distance, even shows them how to use one of the multi-tools.
Mostly, though, the team gathers more information about the Cromar. They were 'created' about 300 years ago. Crom has been slowly pushing them along the civilization path.
