Chapter 4 - Take Me Back To My Boat On The River
With Arnulf left behind, you make your way back towards the pier. Neuheim is, at the same time, extremely easy to navigate, with the roads and streets laid out in a grid, but at the same time *everything* looked the same. Finding a specific spot within the city would probably be much, much harder than just getting back to the river.
Just as you're getting closer, you almost run into a large group of human SS troopers. On pure instinct, Lena turns left into the side street and leads you away, her brain trying to convince her that she *knew* the officer leading the troop while at the same time trying to convince her that she was just being paranoid. All of these blond, young, Aryan SS-officers seemed to have the same haircut, the same angled faces, the same posture, after all.
But it kept nagging at her.
Bhalla has some difficulty keeping up and lags a few steps behind. On the left, the street cuts back to reveal a small inner yard and a workshop behind. There's a small car in the yard, with the hood popped open and two men staring in, one of them rummaging around.
There's a commotion and the door flys open - Bhalla sees a Gnim, the fur ragged and covered in patches of oil running out, ducking as a bottle flies over the Gnim's head and shatters on the street.
"SPITZ! YOU FUCKING DISGUSTING LITTLE RAT! WHAT DID YOU DO TO MY MOTORCYLE!"
The scream is followed by a towering Deutsche man, shirtless, the upper body once well-muscled, but now covered by a considerable belly, lumbering out of the door, with a thick wooden stick cut from a tree that he waves menacingly at the Gnim.
(aaaand you meet Winwiggie. Winwiggie, the group. The Group, Winwiggy.)
