text: You reign in your temper and intolerance, and decide that you shouldn't waste any more ammo if possible, after all who knows what lies in the Xont structure. You state you're going to march through the village "peacefully" but if the Lizards attack then you shall respond in kind.
  
  When you get to the village, it's empty. You certainly weren't expecting that. The Elojin begins talking again.
  
  "Hey how about we rest here before continuing on? The creatures in that Xont building are going to require you guys to be at the top of your game." He says.
  "Presumptuous alien trash! The Empire can face any challenge, unlike you Elojin who are weak and cowardly and run at the first sign of danger." Salo retorts.
  "You mean like now?" the Elojin says and quickly pushes Salo to the ground and runs off into one of the huts. Two of your team give chase and immediately fall into a pit! Arrows begin flying with deadly accuracy. It's a Lizard ambush!
  
  Taking advantage of your temporary unalert state, the Lizards manage to severely wound many of your team, before you can launch a suitable defense. Your enslaved Lizards either run off or join your attackers. Even under all these conditions you probably still would've been able to defeat them, if an Elojin team didn't come out of nowhere to help them.
  
  You fight on, but suddenly feel a blow to the back of your head, knocking you out.
  
  Time passes...
  
  You wake up tied to a post, you see Alyssa and a few of your other team members tied to others, you see what looks to be the head of Salo on a spike. Nearby are some Lizards eating, you draw your own conclusions. You see many of the Lizards holding your guns, and shooting them and examining your other equipment with curiosity.
  
  There are a few Elojin arguing amongst themselves, but the one who lead you into this trap in the first place comes up to you with a big grin, he's also flipping his coins that you had taken from him earlier.
  
  "Ah, you're up. Good. I was tired of talking with natives, let alone my fellow Elojin. I swear we can't agree on anything. One of them says we should kill you right now; another says we should get information out of you first then kill you. Yet another says we should keep you all to sell into slavery. (Sigh) why can't we ever be single minded for once?"
  "I suggest you kill us, because if we get out of this, I guarantee we'll kill you." You say grimly.
  "Hmm, yes I suppose you would and that would be the wisest course of action, but we're in a bit of a bind of our own doing I fear. You see, these natives seem to be a little different than the others on this planet, they're very curious about technology. When we first made contact with them they actually agreed they would enter the structure and help us explore it if we gave them ours, of course we weren't going to do that. So that's where I came in, my disastrous attempt to try to trick the Mazatt turned out to be lucky a break when you humans came along with all your lovely equipment. Now we have their help, so I thank you."
  "Look just put a fucking bullet in my brain now, but don't fucking bore me to death with your constant blather."
  "I just said there are problems with that course of action. Apparently you're considered prisoners of these reptiles and as you were captured in battle, you have to be sacrificed to their idols to appease whatever weird gods they worship. This of course is annoying to us, as we would rather not risk leaving you to the natives whom you may escape from, but as I tried to reason with my fellow Elojin we obviously can't go against them now that we have their help and especially since they have heavier fire power, as well as still outnumbering us. Oh the tangled web we've weaved. (Sigh) I guess we'll all just agree to wait until they sacrifice the lot of you before we can explore without worrying about vengeful humans sneaking up on us. I guess we can wait until morning. See you then."
  The Elojin leaves you to fester with rage, but it's more at yourself, for allowing yourself to get caught up in this whole fool quest to begin with. You've acted recklessly and irrationally. You vow to make this right if you get a chance.
  
  And fortunately you're getting a chance now. In the form of Lieutenant LaFleur of all things. You see him lurking nearby one of the huts, trying his best not to be seen. He must've ran off and hid during the attack. He sees you and looks around to see if anyone's watching.
  
  > call over to him
  You know LaFleur too well; you call over to him as quietly as you can.
  
  "LaFleur untie me!"
  "Shhhh!" he says, getting all nervous and still looking around, he really doesn't want you calling attention to him.
  "LaFleur if you don't untie me right now, I'm gonna yell so loud that the entire village will come, so don't be getting any ideas to escape without untying us first!" you warn.
  Seeing that he has no choice he looks one more time and quickly runs over to you and starts untying you.
  "We gotta get out of here!" he says.
  "Not yet, we got unfinished business. Besides we ain't gonna last long in the jungle without our equipment." You say as you get free just when another Elojin sees what's going on.
  
  "They're escaping! Kill them!"
  "Kill the rest of the prisoners too!" another shouts, and shoots one of your team members killing him.
  "NO! You idiot!" the Elojin you first met shouts.
  
  Upon killing a designated sacrifice to their gods, the Elojin have angered the rest of the Lizards.
  
  "Ssss! Sekeeseekhh! Kishhesss!" one of them hisses. One group of Lizards comes after you and LaFleur and another after the Elojin.
  
  > attempt to untie the rest of your team
  You run over to the other posts to free your team, oblivious to the fact that the Lizards now have guns to shoot at you, they aren't very good at aiming, but actually they aren't trying to kill you, at least not yet, they want you for sacrifice. A plasma blot hits your foot melting it off. You scream in pain as you crash to the ground. The Lizards quickly knock you out with a heavy blow to the head again.
  
  When you wake up, you're tied to an altar ready to be ritually sacrificed. Your only comforting thoughts in your last few moments are that you see the dead bodies of some Elojin stacked near the altar.
  
  The gods of the Lizards will certainly be appeased today.
