<strong>Location</strong>: Burrowed Shore [<span class="bbc_u">M22</span>]<br/><strong>Exits</strong>: Cage Beach (South West); there is<strong>JUNGLE </strong>to the (S\SE\E\NE\N), dense and confounding; sea surrounds on all other sides<br/><strong>Tagged</strong>: Sena, Vesna, Anya, Ciel, Varak<br/><hr/><br/>The group traversed the beach with little difficulty, coming upon the curiously upended stretch of beach in due time.<br/><br/><strong>"Of course, goddess; I'll serve best!  Very resent my great service!" </strong>Krash turned his attention to the holes on the beach.<br/><br/>Krash generally gave Varak a wide berth in the hopes that the leash plan was never enacted, though perhaps ready to run if it was.<br/><br/><strong>"Step-step wide,"</strong>Krash explained warily.<strong>"Sand sifters live here.  They sleep in holes for now,"</strong>though as he said so one of the holes seemed to collapse under the weight of the rain.  Most of them were filled with water.  It seemed unlikely anything was living in those holes, but they were all over the beach and about the width of Sena's waist.<br/><br/>The damp sands, tossed here and there with piles strewn about as if though by avid diggers, spread out before them.  The shadowed treeline in the distance was overgrown with intense yet lush flora.  What fauna lurked there was another question.  Nothing was visible, but the sounds of something moving in the jungle could be vaguely heard over the din of the storm.<br/><br/>They could cross slowly, and be reasonably free of any weak sand that might collapse into the holes.  Or they could be bolder and press across swiftly.<br/><br/>Krash stayed near Sena's side but guided her with some urgency.<br/><br/><strong>"Longer we take, more chance they come up for us,"</strong>Krash implored.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Athletics/Acrobatics</div><div class="spoiler_body">You may elect to move slowly across the area and take no test, or take an Athletics <em>or </em>Acrobatics test to move swiftly.<br/></div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Jungle Travel</div><div class="spoiler_body">Traveling through the <strong>JUNGLE </strong>requires a single Survival roll for the party.  If successful the group moves in the intended direction.  If unsuccessful, the direction is chosen randomly (but could still be correct) or the group finds themselves going in circles.  <strong>JUNGLE </strong>often contains encounters, and tends to be an alien\confusing place without visible landmarks to allow for easily revisiting.<br/></div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Anya</div><div class="spoiler_body">Anya spies, to the south of the Burrowed Shore, what appears to be a lookout platform high in the treeline.  It is unoccupied at the moment and offers little physical protection, just elevation and cover among the leaves.  It is made of wood and lashed greenery, so far as she can tell.<br/></div></div>
