#item lost

{[CONSOLE]: [Nobody]}

Nobody deserves comfort. So you stand in place and do nothing. 

The sick feeling in your gut increases as you feel the dream shudder and begin to crumble.

Nobody is going to miss you.

{THE DREAM HAS ENDED}

The waking world is ready for your to return.

You wake up on a small metal bed in a dingy [Prison cell]

Despite how terrible it felt to sleep, you did regain some health and mana.

{You Regained + 1 Health + 2 Mana}

Magily:

[30/30 HP 20/20 MP]

As you come to your senses, you notice just how many things are missing.

{Cal has left the party}{Gestalt has left the party}

{You lost: [Rusty Sword]}{You lost: [Harvest Spear]}{You lost: [Broken Mining Helmet}{You lost: [Coin Purse}

Oddly enough you can feel most of your inventory still inside you.It seems that whoever took you items was unable to access your [Internal Inventory] so you guess that is a tiny perk.

You are trapped in a small jail cell somewhere that resembles Yexxies Harbor if the screen displaying bright annoying [Advertisements] is any clue.

There are two flickering lights with [Cameras] trained on your cell and several large [Crates] and [Metal Pods] in the room with you.

Standing to the side, armed with a shield and spear is another [Yexxies City Guard.] They are skinny and tall, with brown skin and blue eyes. As you stand up they take notice and snap to attention.

They clear their throat and start again. They are clearly nervous and inexperienced.

While they seem determined to keep you in your cell by following protocol, they don’t seem to be terribly malicious if their shy demeanor is anything to go-

Wait did they say execution?

[There is no way out of the cell that you see. The [Lock] seems to be electronic and bolted in place.]

{[USE]: [Rusted Crusher Spear] on [Locking Mechanism]}

In one last desperate ploy, you use your brittle spear to jab the console that controls the door.

The spear hits the but red button and snaps into three pieces from the force of the strike.

{You lost: [Rusted Crusher Spear]}

The giant vault door slams shut on top of the [Rot Ice Horror] and just as the lights go out, you hear a resounding…

“CRUNCH”

{The Power Has Now Run Out}

You run through the darkness totally blind, until a familiar glow returns, your [Orb of Exploration] reactivates and you see the familiar faces of your team waiting for you on the [Rickety Cave Bridge]

As soon as Cal sees that you are alright, they turn heel and run to the other side of the bridge, clearly in full flight mode.

Gestalt offers their hand to escort you across the fragile bridge under your boots. The howls of furious Rot echo in the deep dark void below your feet. You try not to look down, the dizzying height already making you nervous.

The [LEFT] path leads to the [Frozen Mineshaft Bridge 1]The [RIGHT] path leads to [Frozen Mineshaft Bridge 3]The ladder leads [DOWN] into [Frozen Pit Entrance]

{[DISPOSE]:[Yellow Hunger Toxic Sinew]}

You quickly throw out the strips of corruptive plant matter and you immediately feel better. The vines twist about on the ground for a few seconds before they turn to grey ash.

{You are no longer under the effects of the [Cursed Growth Magic]}

The stranger nods in approval as you toss away the bloody leavings.

You are two for two in picking up gross things today.

{[TRADE]: [Tiny Ice Crystals Shard x 2] [X]: [Small Loaf of Bread x 20]} 

You think about what sort of food rations you and your teams has on hand. Cal has [Hardtack Rations x 6] and Gestalt has [Cooked Seeds x 7] which might be enough for the journey ahead.

You barter with Grex to buy some of their fresh baked bread.

You exchange the [Tiny Ice Crystal Shards x 2] over to Grex and they hand you your items.

{You got: [Small Loaf of Bread x 20} +2HP per loaf.

The loaves are tiny, little more than rolls. They are full of seeds and the crust is thick, with small vents cut along the top. It smells slightly sour and you bet is has some crunch to it.

{[ORGANIZE]: [Inventory]: 

[DISCARD]: [Vomited Hay & Orbo Dung]

[COMBINE]: ([Rusty Sea Lantern] + [Rusty Bronze Lantern]}

To sort out all the junk in your inventory, you toss out the handfuls of half eaten hay and Orbo dung.

{You lost: [Vomited Hay & Orbor Dung]}

You look at the two broken lanterns, the one you found in the mineshaft and the one you found in the junkyard.

You take the wick and metal base out of the [Rusty Bronze Lantern] and luckily it fits into the [Rusty Sea Lantern] you dip the end of the wick into the base full of oil and now all it needs is flint or a fire/crystal to turn on.

{You lost: [Rusty Bronze Lantern]}{You got: [Old Sea Lantern]}

You could even use your [FIREBALL] spell to light the lantern for [1] mana.

So the lantern belonged to Cal, at least they seem fine with you taking it from their mine. 

Looking closely at the carvings, you can see that the lantern was built to project images when the wick it lit. However, it is too light right now for you to see what those images might be. 

{You are no longer over-encumbered and you no longer smell.}

Small victories you guess.
