#odyssey

As luck would have it, he does see a carriage coming in from a side tunnel about to shoot right by him.

He tries jumping/swinging onto it.

(Wits plus Athletics for the timing)

OOC Oh dear.

August leaps for it, fails, and falls , sure to get caught in the wheels of the carriage he was going to use ...

only to find himself caught in the nick of time by a grunting Eshu who had a similiar idea and also tried to leap on it. She made it. He did not, but she kept him from getting trampled, "Ooof, glad your'e not wearing too much armor" Slowly she pulls him to the top with her . Ruzgala then asks him in a whisper "What are YOU doing here? How did you GET here? "

"Shh. Later." August peers ahead to try and see where they are going.

The golems travel past them looking to DESTROY

A toronto pizza rat, not as tough as a NYC pizza rat, faces a grizzly end.

But Ruzgala holds her tongue as she and August race deeper into what is increasingly look like a mad scientists lab

"Need evidence." August whispers to her "Get it to the Duke."

She nods "fine..." Whispering back "I'll try to rescue the Chysliads, you get evidence"

August nods; from his own point of view, records, documentation, would be the best evidence. If he had gloves to protect their provenance, that would be better but he'll make do.

They rattle on while someone inside the carriage they ride is crying out for help. It is a bit heart rending.

August indicates with a nod "What about this one?"

"If we free him or her from the carriage it may not take us to the destination" She frowns "though I dislike being ruthless."

"Perhaps some words of comfort?"

"That I can do" She smiles "Unless you wish to? You're very kindly, Baron."

"Thank you, but if you are to help the Chrysalids, you should be the one to speak."
