“The Ki-Ro-Tab Knights are an elusive cult from what I gather,” Hiona adds. “Although in opposition to Motter, they have their own desires for control of the Inner Gam’A Zone.”
Tamah expressively doubts disheveled Max’s claim of service but accepts his offer. “Strength in numbers.” He nods an appreciative acknowledgement to Denslow’s oath. “My sword and blaster back you, Plister Plantient.”

Bruce pays Yar the 120 coin to modify the stun rod.
“Come back late tomorrow, goop-man, and this will be ready.”
Hagalton; 341D/81 (Morning)
Both groups rally just outside Hagalton, south of town. Mounts and beasts of burden are prepared for the three-day journey to the border of Motter’s realm. Some locals mock your band as willingly going to their deaths. Tamah’s brooding stare hastens them on their way. Hiona’s band includes three retainers, bringing their total to six. Your group numbers five.
The trek across the salt waste is uneventful. You reach the barrier in late afternoon and Hiona suggests you rest. She wants to cross at night while the veil is fully visible, not wanting to chance interaction with the light rays. After sunset, you spend several hours negotiating the holes in the light curtain.
The veils should be harmless, but you comply with Hiona and navigate through the paths. You camp several hundred yards inside the barrier and pass the night. At dawn, you begin the march into Motter’s territory.
The Gam'A Zone; 344D/81 (Mid Day)
Sometime mid-day, clear sky, no observable activity, a bright flash of purple-blue light overwhelms everyone’s senses, including the androids.
When the blinding envelope of light clears, your group is alone and in a similar but different location of the desolate waste. Hiona’s group is nowhere to be seen.
A dust storm whips up from the southwest. A low rumbling sound emits from the front before the storm dissipates, revealing six roundish objects moving forward. They float about three feet above the ground. Thousand-yard-long green light beams intermittently scan to and fro, ultimately pointing in your direction! The objects are over a thousand yards away and rapidly approach!
