He doesn't know where they're going to, or why that slaver attacked them in the first place. He didn't actually see the slaver, as it came in while most people were asleep knocked the guards unconscious before they saw it. Normally he says they only have trouble with the "dorfs"
>go back and look at the footprints derp hurp
Where were they?

That's silly, I'll get one that fits.

>>63804
If you get a new shirt, cut a bunch of holes in the back for your little glowy bits to poke through.

It'll be cuter and also more functional in the lighting sense.

Describe the purple creature with milky eyes and tentacles on his face. Also why do they have problems with the dorfs anyhow?

Also, the footprints were on the ground when you looked over the top of the mushroom here, >>63253 of course.

>>63798
No no no, she isn't an upstairs lady, she's a downstairs lady, if you catch my meaning...

Besides, I think a tight shirt could be uncomfortable on her back tentacles. I imagine she must be sore just from lugging that fusion pack around.

Anyhow, I would advise their leader that we actually caught the slaver off guard and they are likely a rather considerable threat when prepared (he had some kind of pistol, along with his evident mental powers.)

Also ask detail about the nature and physical description of these 'deamons', even if its superstition it can't hurt to be too careful, and a description could be very helpful in proper threat ID.

I let him know, but he doesn't know what it is. He said they want to kill all of his people, so he wants to kill all of them.
>Also, the footprints were on the ground when you looked over the top of the mushroom here,
Oh they did kind of look like foot prints now that I think about it. I can check those out after I get some rest.

Well, it turns out nobody's ever actually seen one. He says they can traditionally shoot fire out of their mouths and such.

Make sure you go to sleep somewhere with your backpack, and a lock on the door. Don't need your stuff gettin' taken by inquisitive hands.

Ask about the dorfs vs gobbos problems:

Are they killing each other already? Is it an open war?

And how did it all start?

It's not a good thing to be in the middle of an open conflict, so better to know everything we can about it.

Dugut is a good fighter, and a decent tracker,

'Shifty' Ommul is an excellent tracker but he looks kinda weedy.

Alba is the best fighter of the three but is a terrible tracker.

Take Ommul, your meson gun will be more than enough should you encounter anything hostile.

We need someone who can watch our back while we have other equipment plugged in. But we also need a tracker.

Let's go with Dugut.

Take Dog Nuts, with proper leading he might raise a little bit above his natural low position in life. But don't expect to much, those things are genetically inferior and you can only do that much to help them.

I always prefer the middle term. Take Dugut with you.

We have offense covered by ourself.

Don't you guys remember what happened with the naked mole rat?

Hmm, there's some ugly lump under there. Doug says it's a troll egg, and if we are careful we can bring it back, it's worth a lot to a trainer! The pool is warm and stinks of sulfur, I rolled up my pants so they don't get stinkwater on them. Gotta think of a way to get it out without damaging it, and then bring it back without doing the same. Doug noticed the carcass on the way up and said that it would be good if we could get that back somehow too. He ssemed nervous when he saw what happened to its head.

>>64642

Can we use a mushroom cap as a cushion, slide it under the egg and carry it back to the city carefully?

>>64642
Seems like using the Cutter would just set the log on fire. Can Doug chop it open enough to reach in and grab the egg?

The troll corpse itself, you should cut up into manageable chunks in a similar way, perhaps using the Cutter on thick bones.

jam sword into edge of log away from troll egg. slowly pry it open via leverage

>>64642

Have Doug use a log, and see if he can pry up the cover long enough for you to scoop it into a cap.

That's a good idea if we could reach it.

>Can Doug chop it open enough to reach in and grab the egg?

Hmm, we could try that but if he slips it could break it.

>jam sword into edge of log away from troll egg. slowly pry it open via leverage

Hmm, the sword is too springy for that.

>>64693

Also is there a suitable piece of stone we could use instead of the sword.

What's about the cutter? Isn't it some kind of tool actually? It should be possible to tune the beam steplessly. If so, use a low powered beam to cut the log.

Use the silk rope, and your bandages, as well as your new buddy's weapon for length if you need to enshroud the egg with the bandage and slowly lift and retrieve the egg securely, loop the silk rope if necessary.

>>64699

Putting a beam of heat that close to the egg might damage it I'm thinking. Or kill the baby troll inside. May wanna try this last.

>>64693
Hmm. There's mud inside the log, which the egg is sitting on. Slide the log out from under the mud so that the egg stays in one place.

Or... if the egg floats, shove some water into the log so that it floats out the other side.

Thirdly, try tilting up the log so that the egg rolls out.
