The Sahara Desert, Mali - Saturday

Their guide was looking worse for wear, but better than last night. "This will cost you extra," he said to anyone who would listen as he readied the camels. "The journey is not much longer from here."

Aravis was grateful for the second day that she was used to this sort of weather, harrowing though it was. She'd created a veil and wrapped her head to try to stave off the sun, and was almost trying to be friends with her stupid camel.

Amber was miserable but not complaining. Her clothes stuck to her, her hair was matty and her cheeks and nose were red. She was used to the camel by now and continued a one-way conversation with it now and again, just to amuse her and keep her spirits up.

Lee almost started whining that he wanted to go home. He did keep the permanent pissy look on his face while they continued on.

The Settlement - Caught in a Trap fh_fillers March 15 2008, 11:32:00 UTC
A concealed pit, a net that will scoop you up and dangle you from a tree, setting off an alarm. They're all possible. Will you be the one to get caught? Someone's bound to.

"Town, here!" the guide said triumphantly.

Lee was just damn happy to get off his camel and immediately started walking out the kinks in his legs.

Of course, he walked right into the trap. Soon, he was upside down, arms dangling in the air and some alarm going off.

"Oh, frakking FRAK," he yelled, trying to get down. "FRAK! Damn it. FRAK!"

After the away team made their presence known, willingly or unwillingly, the hermit decided to extend the same courtesy. Sort of.

Please wait for him to ping in.

The old man appeared and stared at his visitors a moment before launching into a tirade. He was dressed in rags and looked older than dirt.

"Why are you here?! It's too dangerous! You must leave at once!"

"They asked about you," the guide said, nodding and stepping back.

"We had to come find you," Lee said, still trying to work the kinks out of his leg. "We need your help."

He could be diplomatic when he wanted to be.
