Delaying his descent into the valley of trolls, Vinny returns to the beach, taking a slight detour to scan the debris to the south. A quick search of the first 60ft of sand reveals nothing useable aside from some largely undamaged planks of wood and he swiftly returns, not sure how much of a guardian the crystal will actually prove to be.<br/>He does however repeat the search to the north, this time finding a sealed barrel which turns out to be stuffed full of salted pork. This he rolls back to their resting place, figuring it could be traded if nothing else. Once there he curses realizing there is now a clear track leading to them, but given the lack of life seen so far in the area he decides it probably won’t matter. Sure enough they are undisturbed and Kasumi begins to stir two hours and ten minutes after she lay down.
