Snagglewood Day 28

Lornsto Mines

“I’m so excited,” I said with an eager tone.

“Relax, will ya?” Hariet sat at my side. “Sheesh, I thought you were an unemotional rock.”

“You should see him get all lovely feely when Zachary stopped crying from the pain,” Roma teased.

We positioned ourselves behind the crew that was removing all the blockage deeper into the mine. Eric passed with a table, and I could finally see up the tunnel.

“You’ll have to crawl,” Eric said.

“Yeah, yeah. Just seal it up the moment we’re gone. And, Eric,” I said in a stern voice, ensuring I had his attention.

“Yea, Theo?”

“If I come running back, needing a quick reentry, and you went to the basement to shit, I’m not going to be forgiving,” I told him.

He rolled his eyes before pausing once he saw I was dead serious.

Yilissa said, “Roma is watching. She’ll not let you die trying to get back to her.”

Hariet had heard enough, leaving through the upper tunnel in the blockade. Yilissa went next, forcing me to hurry along.

Roma and I shared a sweet kiss of goodbye before I followed the other gals through the blockade.

After a week of hiding in the mine, the rain had stopped, the ground had hardened, and we needed information on Lornsto as well as the steamboat named Apple. I kept checking my points, seeing I had slipped back to second. Me and the first-place guy or gal kept leapfrogging each other, and all I was doing was hiding.

My quests never changed except for decreasing my reward to leave the mine as I stayed longer. Exploring the Apple went from 2500 points to 1000 by the time we set out. At the same time, bringing fresh food increased in rewards, so it was a mixed bag. I received penalties for delays and incentives for fixing critical issues.

I finished crawling through the opening and found myself staring up at sunlight reflecting into the mine. A few more steps, and I’d be free. I had to internally admit I was a bit nervous.

“Coming, coming. Kayla is such a worrier,” Craig said, shimmying out of the opening and climbing down.

The tunnel was stuffed shut, and the four of us spared a moment to acknowledge we were on our own.

“Alright, quick weapons checks,” I said, assessing Yilissa. She carried a unicorn under her left armpit and a lever action .38. “Weapons are good. Bandolier is ready to go. I see your knife and fire starter survived the crawl.”

“Yes, and you have both dragons and Henry. This strap on your bag came free,” Yilissa said, coming close to fix the dangling strap. “Good to go.”

“We’re good,” said Hariet.

“Alright. A week to a narock is a hell of a long time. Unfortunately, Opo fed them, and then there were animals -”

Yilissa rolled her eyes and said, “We know. We had the briefing a hundred times. Lead the way, Hero.”

I shouldered Henry, wanting any surprise at the lip of the mine to be greeted by a hell of a bang. Each step up the incline left me nervous, and I could smell the nasty aroma of feces from up ahead.
