		+	On the way south, Nala was able to replenish her supply of patches and fruit grenades. They passed a typical guard position and entered Topaz, heading directly to the main bar in the town.
		+
		+	In the bar, two people were noticed. One was Bax, the focus of Raven's long lost backstory. He appeared to be working as a bouncer. The second was a cultist.
		+
		+	Conversations were had by the group and the bartender and the cultist. The cultist eventually tried some mentalist shenanigans, but it didn't go well. He was disabled by Glub... and carried away... and eaten.
		+
		+	Blue (aka Smurfette) was still very sad.
		+
		+	Raven lost her tracking on the OG cultist since he died. Seems South Ekanite and the cultists teamed up to attack North Ekanite. The results are unknown. Raven switched her tracking to Bax.

There was a large fire-bug in their way, and a large beetle close by. Beyond that, they could see another group waiting for the bugs to go away so they could head north.
		+
		+	The firebug had recently roasted most of the other bugs in the region and was happily munching on them. Glub animated one of the corpses as a distraction and the battle began with the firebug roasting it. Raven was able to assassinate some limbs, slowing it down and Dortho was able to evade most of the flame thrower attacks. The other group joined in, but wasn't able to do much harm to the intermediate scale beast.
		+
		+	The large beetle had a number of other humanoid bugs on it and they joined the fray, attacking both the group and the firebug. The large beetle seemed to have a stockpile of grenades to use.
		+
		+	The firebug was taken down and the group focused on the grenade throwers. The battle ended when Raven assassinated the large beetle. It had been designed to detonate it's grenade payload upon death. It's explosion also caused the remaining flammable material in the firebug to explode as well. The group took heavy damage but survived. The rest of the humanoid bugs died in the explosion.
		+
		+	The other group down the tunnel advanced to offer assistance. We'll see if Nala can resist attacking the vimren among them. Mwa ha ha...

		+	==Interlude==
		+
		+	The original cultist split off from the other three and headed to the bar in North Ekanite. As he was entering the bar, four other beings were exiting. There was a human, a masopter, a fikliess, and an oversized yiptak. There were a few things of note.
		+
		+	* All are seasoned, though you think the fikliess is a non-combatant. He's riding on the yiptak.
		+	* Their gear is 'shiny'. It all looks new and customized.
		+	* Both the human and maspoter have long range laser rifles. The yiptak has a laser rifle, two assault blasters, and a sear gun. Everyone has shields, move boots, and patch robots.
		+	* They're being followed by a bunch of small flying robots with large sensors.
		+
		+	Cultists passes them by and heads to the bartender.

		+

		+
		+	"What is it with these guys? So you told them to head south I assume."
		+
		+	"Yup. Traded a shield for the info."
		+
		+	"Nice."
		+
		+	"Yeah, but they might not be headed south. Also told them the legend about the 'original cultist' in the pit. That seemed to intrigue them."
		+
		+	"Really? Think they're tough enough to take it out?"
		+
		+	"Doubt it. I bet they come back with missing limbs."

Blue indicated that she felt through her empathic link to Mica that Mica was frustrated and angry. Despite this, the group is very powerful as a sniper, tank, striker/sapper, and biotech, all seasoned.

		+	==July 4, 2025 - Pond Scum & Snake Bugs==
		+
		+	On the way to Galax they encountered an open area filled with a pink pond, and many sneaky snake bugs. Many baby-snakes were killed horribly while their parents watched in horror from the safety of the nearby caves. Actually, the parents didn't care. The baby snakes weren't considered real children until they were at least two meters long. The pond turned out to be sentient and telepathic and exchanged some fortune telling for spare gear which it ate.
		+
		+	The question posed to the pond was 'How can we escape this planet'. Two possibilities were put forth: "In chains", "Due to someone famous".
		+
		+	==July 10, 2025 - Galax==
		+
		+	They continued on to Galax and hung out in a bar. The bartender was friendly and the beer was free. There was a group of more recent prisoners.
		+
		+	A cultist was pointed out - he was very drunk and didn't pay any attention to anything. Just in case, Glub went and tampered him unconscious. He was then robbed by one of the newcomers.
