[Que train]

I'm basically living on the last couple of cargo cars of this train. As far as I know, the conductor doesn't know I'm here. I can't say much for passersby though, since a few of them have decided to join me. It's kind of annoying but I suppose the company is fine.

There's a little mutiny going on in one guy's head and as soon as we ride over the sea he gets a little life boat he found and rows off to a semi-underwater cave. I and a couple others go after him to try to convince him to get back on the train. We give up on him though, because the train is starting to get too far away. When we get back on board, we sick some flags up to sort of claim it more officially and so we could spot the train more easily if we have to save anyone else from a cave.

Once we pass over the sea, the train derails and mows over some grass to a gas station where everyone gets off and chills out for a bit. A passing taxi sees us and the driver offers us a ride, not knowing we were with the train (or did he?). We don;t get a chance to get back on the train before it starts pulling off onto the highway, which might have been a good thing, otherwise we wouldn't have gone anywhere anyway because that taxi driver had really stopped by to sabotage the train by disconnecting all the cars past the second one. The conductor gets pretty far out before realizing.

After that gets all cleared up and we are back on track (not literally though, this train doesn't need tracks apparently. It's kinda cool but mostly just freaking me out.) Ingrid returns from somewhere and asks me what she's missed. I don't even kow how long she was gone. I start with how that guy ran rowed off to the cave and he still wasn't back. Some other guy with his same name, Dappell, kept correcting me on how it was pronounced. As if things would start combusting if I kept saying it wrong. I move on and talk about the train working on grass and that saboteur taxi driver.
