*They entered the dump, all sorts of waste surrounding them in piles from the biodegradable to discarded metals and everything in between. Several holes in the ground would erupt at random with bursts of steam; one nearer to the left side seemed almost constant*Well... we're here. Somewhere. ~AMK

 Asphyxia was startled the first time a gush of steam burst near her, and held a hand to her chest. 'F-! Right. I hope no one saw us come in here,' she muttered, anxiously glancing over her shoulder.

 At this point, if anyone did take notice to us they would just think we were taking trash out and not give it a second thought. *He peered down a vent, leaping back as steam burst out*~AMK

 'Pfffft,' she snorted, and started laughing again. 'That was smart.'

 Well, if it's an underground resistance, we're not likely to find them sitting in the heap of trash, are we? ~AMK

 'Nor are they likely to be down a big-a** steam vent. They'd get launched straight back out again,' she snickered.

 You'd both be surprised how wrong you are. *A well built man was seated in a lawnchair on the opposite side of a mound of scrap there were nearest* Who's there!? ~AMK

 'What the!' Asphyxia spluttered, taken aback by the new voice, and hid behind MK.

 You're mighty brave to disguise a woman and have her traveling with you. It's a death sentence in these parts if she were caught. *He stood up from where he sat, stepping up to the pair* How did you... No, you didn't answer my question yet. Who are you? ~AMK

 She gulped, worried at being caught out. 'Not going to go tell someone your findings, are you?' she asked, uncertain what to make of the stranger.

 You've come here for a reason, haven't you? I'm not here to report anyone. *Taking a long puff from his cigar, he blew the smoke at MK, peering around to get a look at what he assumed was a refugee* ... Gaertim? You're Gaertim, aren't you? ~AMK  That's the one. You do know why you're here then. Question is, who told you? I wasn't expecting anyone.

 'His fault,' she said, pointing at MK. 'He found out about you from a wanke- uh, I mean a Guardian, he knocked out.'

 Knocked out another guardian for info? They must be onto us already then. Who was it, and where was he posted? *The man seemed both intrigued and a degree upset by the news, knowing that it would be likely Guardians were coming back for another attack on the resistance* Name was... Kaius, I think it was. Somewhere out on an ice sheet, maybe... two or three miles southeast of here, or there abouts. ~AMK

 'I think you're still safe for a bit yet. Someone we ran into a short while ago told us to look out for a resistance, but that was it. Didn't say anything else. Apart from looking at us like we're retarded, that is.'

 Sounds like you ran into Chirode. He was dropped on his head at birth. Twice. It's remarkable that he does anything at all. You've not seen any elders, have you?  Elders? Well, there was one... ~AMK
