Into the Gam’A Zone, Day 26

Bruze, Jack, Frekken, Frank & Blixx head south to investigate the source of the humming/buzzing noise. Bruze hangs at the rear, ready to take flight if the group comes under attack. Blixx follows the group hovering 15-20ft. above the ground to provide over watch; musket at the ready.

You move about 200 yards from the camp before Blixx sees a small canyon up ahead. The near edge of the canyon is 240 yards away. The sound has gotten louder and appears to be emanating or echoing from the canyon.

The surrounding landscape is unchanged and no movement can be seen.

Actions?

Jack scratching his head the former sheriff asks "Wonder if there is a working power plant around here or something."

Frekken, MA Frog

Frekken crawls ahead on his stomach, attempting to belly-up to the canyon. If he can, he'll peer down over the edge, keeping as low a profile as possible. As he moves, his chameleon epidermis takes on the color of the ground...

Bruze Whane, mutant bat:

Bruze joins Frekken, crawling forward, remembering sharply the last time they did this, and the stupid things Bruze did soon after to disgrace and dishonor his lord and god.

Do you plan to crawl the entire 240 yards to the edge? Your chameleon epidermis will only be effective if you strip and ... don't have a bat-man in tow. :P

I think Frekken will crouch-walk most of the way and belly-crawl the last 100 yds--just to take a peek to see what's down there, then scamper back. I'll save the gettin' nekkid for another occasion...

Into the Gam’A Zone, Day 26

Frekken and Bruze move forward to the edge of the canyon. Frekken crawls the last 100 yards to look over and into the canyon, being careful not to draw attention.

Jack walks forward another 200 yards then joins in the belly crawling for the last 40 yards.

Frekken, MA Frog

Frekken crawls back as Jack approaches, gesturing towards the cliff's edge. He returns to the others with his findings.

"A whole swarm of flies--delicious looking flies," Frekken explains, demonstrating the length with his hands, holding them approximately three-feet apart. "They're eating something big though--a lizard I think--so I don't know if they killed it or what. There's probably ten of them...they're all too busy chowing down to look around for any more prey."

Bruze Whane, mutant bat:

"What would Bhatt Mhann do?" Bruze thought.
Then he sagely rasped in a hoarse whisper, "There's no profit for us in this fight. Let's leave them."

Frekken, MA Frog

Frekken sighs. "Okay. But now I'm hungry," he says, and creeps back to camp dejectedly.

Bart, MH

Bart sits whittling, and waiting.
Upon the return of the scouting group, he toss a wooden bat-a-rang towards Bruze and puns.

Into the Gam’A Zone, Day 26

Hmm, I didn’t count on the Gam’A Zone inspiring spontaneous comedy. :P

Alright, you still need to rest during the day from traveling last night.

Are you going to continue night travel or wait until morning and resume the exploration during daylight hours
?
