>>21089988Gābena tugs on her tank top, trying so hard to stay cool in a sea of humidity. She scans the surrounding area for something, and sure enough, luck is on her side.
"Ah! My bag! Yes, I thought for sure that I lost it! Whoo!"
While the major gets to recovering her formerly lost inventory, you reflect on your current goals. You have to get to the next town, that much is obvious. The problem is, while you're out of the swamp, you're not out of the route, you still have to climb through three whole staircases before getting back to where you were before all this mess started, /then/ make your way to the town.
Fuck that, fuck all of that, but especially fuck the stairs part. Fuck whoever thought putting so many stairs there was a good idea. You're not moving another muscle unless it involves pure fun.
Coincidentally, you catch sight of a beaming Gābena pulling out a clean, spare, non-goo drenched flying suit from her bag.
