Lori was jolted awake with a force that sent his stomach into his chest and rattled his teeth. Immediately he grabbed the straps keeping him pinned to his seat. The temperature inside the craft began to rise and noise returned, a dull roar as new air rushed past them. He heard the lieutenant...

Originally posted here There are no roads around the Wild Gift. Luckily for us, the mud tracks that lead away from it are dry in the summer. You have to walk for ages (the map says it’s three miles – I don’t know what scale they’re working to: it feels like at least ten) to get to the...
