    Is that smoke in the distance?

    It's been a rather long cycle, it feels like. The rain still hasn't come yet, you already got all the food you needed, so it was a rather obvious choice to start looking for a shelter. Where you're at right now, there doesn't seem to be all too much except for a bunch of worm grass and some rot spores, so you decide to look elsewhere. You were darting across pipes, platforms, the whole deal, looking around for a decent place to stay (that also wasn't occupied already). Although, on the way, you catch a rather displeasing scent...smoke. And from the looks of it, that smoke seemed to be very close by.

    Wanting to at least know whatever that smoke is coming from, you looked around from the tall group of rebar and pipes you were sitting on, seeing a dark crimson slugcat with a burnt eye dragging the body of a scavenger over to a karma gate. It was a rather gruesome sight, made even more threatening by the explosive spear she was carrying. You even managed to catch a bit of what she was saying:

    Absolutely PATHETIC! The bastard didn't even try to fend for itself! Whatever, it might have enough karma to open that gate...

    ...Yeah. Didn't seem like the nicest scug you've ever met. Thankfully, she doesn't know of your presence sitting right above her. It'd probably be best to just stay far far away from her.
