Frank Rock; veteran human


Frank will help collect the honey and then he will walk carefully around to see if he can find anything of interest in the wreckage of the hive....

Belial

Belial leaves off his building with pebbles to crunch down the edible parts of the big Bee, then goes back to trying to stack round pebbles.

Frekken helps remove the honey, then goes back in following Blixx, searching for anything hidden. "Let's be careful and quick," the frogmonn suggests, his bow drawn and ready.

Bart, MH

Bart goes over and builds with the flying-monkey, makes a small model of a place he calls Caston, and tells of a battle he dreamed of many times.
He uses the small figure he whittled to reenact the battle. "...this is were the S.O.B. betrayed us...and then the jousters came on their birds...and i fought on, even thought I was stuck with pins like a quelled hog! Sigh..."

Bee Tower, Day 54 – Late Afternoon

Belial, bored, plays with pebbles and builds scale buildings.

Jack gathers the three jars of honey and tugs the rope to signal he is ready to ascend the tunnel. He exits with the honey and conveys their discoveries from inside the tower lair.

Image

Blixx inquires with Jack on the possibility of hidden areas by the remaining honey comb. Jack is unconvinced that there any additional discoveries to be made inside the nest. Nonetheless, Frekken concurs with Blixx that they should search the hive for hidden treasures. The frogmonn and mothmonn descend into the tunnel.

Frank ponders the remaining bee hive 80 feet above his location.

Bart, unable to fit into the tunnel and explore the tower, shares a story with Belial on the battle of Caston, the Ant Lord and the traitor the S.O.B.

Belial

Belial is entranced by the story of Caston. He listens, mouth half-open and eyes wide, like a small child.

I dunno about exploring, Brotherman. I can see where the bees might have buried something in their hive accidental-like.... but the more exploring you do, the harder it will be for the rest of us to back you up if you get in trouble.

Frekken follows Blixx's lead further down into the ruined hive, using his foraging skills to keep his bulbous eyes open for anything useful he can find.

Bee Tower, Day 54 – Early Evening

Frekken, Blixx and Jack continue to explore the inside of the hive/tower. After a couple of hours, they assemble (with the help of Jiminy) the following collection outside the tunnel entrance:

  • Edible, roasted bee/larvae (Equivalent to 2-days of rations, must be eaten within 5 days)
    Copper strings covered by old, brittle marine leather (Electric wiring; 32gp)
    Old hinged metal boxes (Control Panel Enclosures; 13gp)
    Ancient geometric jewelry (Control Panel Components; 9gp)

OOC: You purchased just enough supplies for a trip to this tower and back to Hagalton. With the addition of the recovered, roasted carcasses you have an additional two days’ supply.

You can travel 4 additional hexes inside the Zone with this supply supplement.

Current Map: The Blue-green line is the route traveled in from the Hagalton (days off the map). Gray is unexplored/unseen area.

Frekken agrees, croaking happily. "The battle at the honey-hive was a sticky situation, but we sure combed that place for all it was worth! Any ideas on what we wanna hit on the way back?"

Belial

The baboon snaeks a little of the honey, not wanting to eat too much of the profit. Dudes! I love me some honey! I know we passed a couple o' mounds onna way out here- maybe that one close to the bridge? Not the one with the skellybones, the other one.

The one marked Undisturbed mound on the map

The undisturbed mound was explored by the group before Belial joined the party. There was nothing of significance found. These mounds are the buried upper remains of wind tower generators. Without excavation equipment and/or a large work force, it would take weeks to dig into an undisturbed (unexcavated) mound.

Frank looks over at Belial and says; "I think we explored that before we met up with you and found nothing in it my friend".

I suggest we shoot for either the unexplored mound SW or SE from our current location.

Seconded. It looks like the one SE may be marginally closer.
