ON THE TRAIL
week six



16 characters remaining.


It's July, 1842, and the trail ahead stretches as far as you can see. Your destination still seems like an even farther off dream with as slowly as the wagons go, but at least you have good company... Right? You're traveling through Nebraska this week, and it seems like it will be a bumpy ride.
WEATHER
Sunday: Rain
Monday: Pleasant
Tuesday: Hot
Wednesday: Hot
Thursday: Afternoon Thunderstorms
Friday: Dust Storm
Saturday: Pleasant
This week, suggested activities include Putting out fires, running from spiders and otherwise avoiding the effects of your costumes. On Monday, there will also be a chance to ford a river. The river is deep, and conditions are fair. On Wednesday, there will be a chance to stop at a ghost town. Good luck and safe travels!

[it is not fine???

oh my god you guys. Arthur is definitely not wading in, watching them from the shore. How far fab wagon has fallen...]


I'd rather be hot than deathly sick..... don't say I didn't warn you.

What are the chances? We've had bad luck already! We're due for some good luck!

[He waves a hand dismissively because, geeze. Don't rain on their parade...]

Come on, the water's nice! And you'll dry off nice and quick in this weather.

Leave him! If he wants to be a chicken, he can go whine about it in the dirt.

[Arthur's probably right, actually, because Judar looks like he's having trouble keeping his feet in that heavy, and now wet, costume. Better move out of his way in case he falls, guys.]

[GUYS........

He's going to just huff a sigh, sitting on the bank instead of getting in the water. It is hot, but he's seen how things go here, and he has no interests in getting in that water. What if there's something lurking in there???

But also he can't quite bring himself to leave, because...well, what if there's something lurking in there? He's basically the only one in their wagon with a useable weapon with Virion gone.

Hmph!]

[And now, with everyone just far enough away, Judar's bad luck is going to really kick in.

He slips on a slimy rock while wading in the shallower edge of the river, but it's still deep enough to causes a huge splash and hide his body under the water as he falls.

There is a telling lack of flailing, yelling, or even movement now. Is he dead, maybe?
