Oh, waiting for Murphy and Henry? They came back with Wildcat ages ago.
Recap ahoy!:
- Carl and Murphy went down the mine to catch a shaman with a photograph that made the local Comanche warriors immortal.
- two hours and a lot of rock-moving later, they were joined by Ward, Augustus &co., who had come to put an end to the power of the Serpent God rumoured to be "sleeping" somewhere down there, aware that the Comanches were trying to awaken Yig Tezcatlcoatl and bring Him to His full power.
- At this point they were interrupted by an angry Bone Fiend and a bunch of skellingtons, all with bones on.
- These subdued, the party patched themselves up, swapped information and discussed next moves.
- startled onward by voices and movement, Mike and Augustus hung back to test Augustus' sonic weapons against the bulletproof Comanche and met up with Charging Bear, fresh back from Unknown Kadath the Hunting Grounds with ghost Dust Adder buddy Jeb. They came back with Comanche weapons and the news that stunning sonics worked.
- Everyone hung about a bit more whilst Augustus made a bigger better semi-sonic weapon for last-ditch boom-throwing. CB and Jeb the ghost went off scouting.
- Spanish Joe, already acting skittish, noticed activity further back by putting his ear to the ground. Murphy and Heavy Henry dropped back to investigate and returned with Wildcat the Texas Ranger.
- Augustus finished his boominatory device. The party started off on the fastest way to stop the shaman, according to advice from Wildcat's mysterious native source.
- Jeb floated back, yelling about CB being attacked by a bad cloud.
- Omnes (unless Augustus stayed behind unnoticed) rushed up to help.
- There was no CB, but there was a smell of something with no buisness being there - Cloreen the Gas! Ward called a halt and a backing-off.
- Wildcat respectfully ignored him and went on. Carl followed.
...and that's where we're at on the Mine thread.
Adrian, as you have some of the Dust Adders, feel free to prod them into motion.
