Night 1
Dust Settles, Shadows Stir

Limited and Bexxi huddle in the fragile shelter, sharing warmth and silence.
The temperature drops to death-levels at night on Mars, and neither speaks of tomorrow.

Raflysetiawann stumbles into Wild Olympus1 at the edge of the scarred dune fields. Weapons raised - then lower. A silent nod. One night of peace.

After wiggling out of the trap Chat0yant finds a jagged stone to lie on, sleeping with one eye open at all times.

At the edge of the sand dunes stands Raflysetiawann and Aske looking at each other. For a moment Aske thinks that they both come in peace, but a second later Raflysetiawann tries to bury Aske in the sand.
Aske doesn't fight it, so Raflysetiawann walks away and Aske survives... This time.

Devilcake and Sadbread take turns staring into the darkness. One sees stars. The other sees ghosts.

Lain binds her leg with strips of torn cloth. The wound still leaks, but her fire still gives her the heat she needs.

In desperation Aske looks for heat and shelter, and there she sees Lain by the fire, she recognizes her from earlier. Aske reaches for Lain's hand. She takes it. Neither of them speaks.

Bexxi is on a night walk, making sure the area around the shelter is safe. She sees Fujiwara, and Fujiwara her. Fujiwara kneels before Bexxi, begging for Bexxi to kill her.
Bexxi declines.


Wild Olympus starts a fire.

While Bexxi is gone, Teabag finds their shelter. There Limited stands, before the fire.
Teabag walks up and starts kneeling before Limited. Also Teabag is begging to be killed.
Limited just sighs and walks towards the shelter.
