As Spidermonkey creeps ahead of the pack( and past the canoe ), staying in cover, he gets just up to the edge of the light from the campfire. Its now dusk. You can barely make out their conversation, but what you can hear... they're drinking and talking loudly..."gonna make the trade tomorrow... despite what we been's through." one with a deep voice says. "no lights for two days now..." one of the others responds "and we make it."

DrPhobic gets close enough to determine these "creatures" sitting about the fire seem to be ordinary men... they each have makeshift shields and spears stuck in the ground next to them. You also make out a small handcart next to a tree with supplies of some sort. You make out more of their conversation, they have made the same journey as you, although from a greater distance, and seem to have run into trouble of some sort two days earlier.

One of them looks up and says "hey, whats that canoe doing?" - just kidding on that part...

On a side note... I cant figure out how to post pictures on the thread... could someone please explain how you are all doing it?

Dr. Phobic will stand up in as non-threating a manner as someone as awesome as Dr. Phobic can.

"Gentleman, I believe I may be of some assistance in your present troubles."

He'll be ready with his revolver just in case he sense they have wild nano they aren't sharing.

Wait for it to upload, then click it so it is highlighted. Click select photo. The photo will load in the aforementioned reply/post window.

 

The three of them leap to their feet spears/shields in hand amazingly fast. The one in front yells "Chaz, cover the gear, there may be more..." and as he backs up to the cart replies "Ive got it." The one in front takes a hesitant step forward holding a street sign shield with his spear raised "Who are you stranger? Are you alone?"

"Alone.....? Hmm....? That's a good question. How does one define being alone? Am I alone because I have only myself and my perceptions of the nominal world? Or, am I alone because the nominal world can only disclose itself to me via my own perceptions and not those of any other? Ooo! Shiny street sign. Neat! Do you have one that says Ped Xing? I need it for the collection I plan to start one day."
