Chapter 1, Interlude 1: Alex
OOC: Trek: How the party endured a trying hardship on the journey.
Alex trudges along with the group as they head to their destination. He's wary about the mission, but he knows it's important. Especially if they're serious about citizenship. However, as the group walked, they didn't get too far before things went awry.
A small tentacle burst through the ground. No, not a tentacle. It couldn't be, there's no creature that looks like that. Not on land, anyway. Whatever it is, Alex draws his weapon and fires upon it. He doesn't see in all the chaos what his comrades do, all he knows whatever it was leaves and returns to the earth. The ground is split apart, dust and dirt are everywhere, and Alex takes a quick swig of his water.
Alex comments, "That was odd. Wonder what kinda earth shake could cause that. I mean ... that tree root almost looked alive and like it was attacking us, ya know?" Alex chuckles to himself, not noticing if no one else joins in.
Unfortunately, due that weird earth quake and tree root that was flinging at the group before disappearing, there was a large gap in the ground that the group would have to get around. Alex hums to himself in thought, as he looks for a way to get around this gap without getting too close and adding unnecessary time to the trip. They already wasted time by fighting a tree root, after all.
