The Plague Town is in sight, just two Times (~1hr20mins) distance off. You're glad of the rest. As to the why, you wait, try to figger it for yourself, maybe go snooping later, when you're scrounging. Like food given freely, or a morsel found in an Immortal's lair, information there for the asking is dangerous. Who knows which mouthful might contain a poisoned nail?

Your Slutfoul has you break up the wagon and cobble a hovel for you both.
>§20 - QM3d4 While you silently work, your Shitpool wags a foot over a knee, musing whimsically. You pay complete attention, even steaming with sweat. It's instruction. IMPORTANT.
"The air is heavy Yang (positive), but the streets are quiet...
"The Yin is not in retrograde or pressured, suppressed; it is not deficient, but gone.
"The air does not circle, to or from; why does no one move?
"If I feel further I will be felt, and if I don't I might be found...haaai...a bore, a bore. Tudi! Go to town. See if anything is interesting. Ask if they have blood and wine!"
