Finally ready to move, Gwen grinned as bravely as she could manage at the others.  "Before we head to the tower, maybe we better check for others."  She suggested.  "There might be more people out in that mud that are having as hard a time as I was."  And after a short pause, she added.  "Did you hear that?"  She turned her back on the tower and looked out over the crater, again feeling the pang on near-familiarity in the alien landscape.  But ignoring it again, she focused on the more immediate, and after a moment she pointed.<br/><br/>"There!"  She yelled out.  "I think that's a child, or maybe a halfing"  It was hard to tell details, as the small person was covered in mud.  Still scanning from their vantage near the rocks, she added.  "And over there?  I think something is moving."  After staring another few moments at the silent and more distant spot in the mud she added.  "I think it's a person."  it was very hard to tell given the mud and the distance.<br/><br/>She turned from her overview back to the others.  "We can't leave them down there."  She stated the obvious.
