: *Everyone is thoroughly exhausted, from slogging home on a beeline through the swamps. This was a bit easier because of the three kailla. I had bought Triumph outright, before we left. Richard, after getting his (ouch) Merchant Brand, had also been allowed to buy a kailla. Medi had stolen hers, claiming she fell off and it got away, then after the Tuchuks left, going back and finding it where she had tied it up. We are lucky we found this abandoned village, with halfway surviving roofs on most of the huts, to crash in.*

: *This abandoned village seems as good a place to set up a temporary base as any place within the jungle. It doesn’t rain as much here as it does farther inland, but it’s still enough to appreciate a dry roof and floor. And a place to store firewood to make cook fires. So first order of business seems to be to repair the roofs on the native huts. It hadn’t rained at all today, and the clouds are breaking up on a warm and mild southerly winds, so I don’t think it will rain tonight either. Still, I’d like to get one or two huts with a dry roof. The Exhausted Contentment is still, I presume, moving back and forth between the high sea and the mouth of the Kamba River, waiting on Billi and Fang, on the skiff, to get back. So we are gonna be roughing it for at least a couple of weeks, until the ship gets here.*

: steps his way over the soft ground of the abandoned village, moving towards you with a small smile good evening, Kim... looks like there's a lot of work to be done

: *I had finished supervising repairs on the first hut, and was moving stuff that should stay dry, like kailla tack and askari shields in there. I come out of the hut and see you, back from patrol.* Did you find anything at the Pirate Cove? Any sign that anyone had been there, docked there, buried bodies...?

: nods some small pieces of cut rope, as if someone had slashed through mooring lines in a hurry. Hard to say how long they've been there. Didn't dig too deeply for bodies. How are things coming around here? Do we have anyone who's still on their way, or has the entire group made it here?

: Everybody has their own assingments. Medi is hunting, Tasp is scouting to the North, Rissa in the foothills. Richard and his girls are all curled up in the farthest hut from the river, I just stayed away and didn’t look close. Trina is sleeping too.
