You sit and think for a good long bit: what to do with Wagon.
On one hand, it'd be nice to not have to walk. Just go climbing with Wagon in the Pouch if you need to, trundle on downwards until you find the city.
Wagon might not be much faster than YOU going on foot, since it only manages a walk speed as a Dimmy, but you envied Seafood his piggaback ride from Everdote to Whythistle, and you want to see what it feels like to be carried long distances all cushy like.
Why Not is common sense: Wagon <span class="mu-s">Yuge</span>. It clomps along like an armored rhinoceros, that thick clonky carapace scraping close spaces. There'll be no sneekibreeki, going with Wagon. Of course you can still kit up in your Quality Armor, fuggit, bash through everything, but you don't know what you're dealing with yet.
It's Bugs and Fungus related you think, but what kind and how many, you have no clew. Better to be a sneek for now. You can always come back to this particular cubby if things go bad and you need to fight your way in or out.
Just in case, you gird Wagon in several ropes with knots in them, for easy mounting. For a saddle, a biggy cut of leftover quilt skirt glued right onto the shell. You'll need more time to kludge a nice comfy drivey seat, and now ain't it.
You get to patching yourself. The small scrapes have closed; there's still bigger wider ones, half healed, from your fall. Those get some owwie-dun, maybe some sheep tar if they're seepy. You don't know what to do with the biggy bruise over your back from when Wagon mooshed you. You think a massage might help, but hell if you ask Moar Oww to do it, with his extreme finger surplus. Maybe that's one reason to get the Bluddslutt fixed...
You decide to sleep off the bruise. You'll be in this place for a while at least. Might as well take your time, since it's not unpleasant.
You get out Gui Li's Altar, do one round of Ceremony in lieu of a propper snakk, and get ready for kip.
You get Wagon to back up to the opening of the chamber, blocking it off, and curl up with a small lit candle at your back for warmth.
