Noticing the grumbling, Dave wandered over to the Engine Spirit. "I'm Dave.  Are you one of the crew as well?"

Talk to the engine spirit.  Empathize?

[Xantalos]

Lacking anything else to do, go find my plant/focus my attentions on it if I have it with me. It was a minor narcotic when I last left it as I recall - focus on believing that it has healing properties.

[piecewise]

- Okay, alright, fine, I'm not smashing any rocks up here anymore.

Get the rock in question and toss it overboard, towards something solid, like the ruins. See what it does on impact.

You hurl it overboard. There's a second or two of nothing and then a bright flash and fireball as it impacts. Even this small stone seems to go off with a surprising amount of force.

Continue flying high and watching out for explosion-attracted wildlife (which, considering it would be attracted to explosions, would presumably be quite the deadly sort of wildlife indeed).

No sign of anything alive, but when the explosion goes off, all the flowers and even the stones seem to glow a little bit brighter.

Noticing the grumbling, Dave wandered over to the Engine Spirit. "I'm Dave.  Are you one of the crew as well?"

"I suppose you could say that. Or you could say I am part of the beast. Either would be technically correct."

The plant seems...maybe a bit greener?

[Xantalos]

Keep doing that! Include regenerative powers in my strategic self-delusions.

[Comrade P.]

- We ain't hauling any more of these than we have now, if we are keeping them at all. I say we wrap each rock in clothe thoroughly and secure the whole bunch somewhere, because who knows when we might need some explosives. On the other hand we could throw them all away and don't feel threatened on each bump. What do you say, guys, this is one boat for all of us, I'm not making a call on this one by myself.

Address the problem of hauling explosives on the Warbeast. Call for a vote on the matter.
Vote Throw Away.

[Xantalos]

"I vote we take some and secure them carefully. They'll have good value as intimidation tactics, which we'll need if we're going to survive."

[Parisbre56]

((You could store them on a non-vital part of the warbeast. The warbeast can easily regenerate and you can easily have it retrieve them and throw them or give them to you.))

[Comrade P.]

Guess who rigs the vote due to inactivity now? Me.

Hyenakles: Keep them
Dave: Throw away
Mr. Bird: Keep them
Rocky: Keep them
Hurr-Durr: Throw away
John: Throw away
Xankarvo: Keep them

SO we're keeping the rocks, Hyenakles fetches some more so our total would be ten rocks, for the ease of count, we bundle them up, each wrapped in cloth and all tied together and secured some place on Warbeast where we rarely walk, and we move on through this land.

[Toaster]

((Some how missed the vote, but Dave would vote keep.))

The plant starts looking very green indeed. The leaves are sprouting other, smaller leaves.

Hyenakles: Keep them
Dave: Throw away
Mr. Bird: Keep them
Rocky: Keep them
Hurr-Durr: Throw away
John: Throw away

Ok. Should they be of any specific size or just whatever?

Also, move through to the next one? Which direction? Avoid the indented ground?

[Comrade P.]

Preferably not too large, something a size of a fist, probably.

We move on, um, along the ruins? Something straight ahead or so within the view currently. I guess we will try to go from one ruin to another for a while, looking around for curiosities, if we can't locate the next one within the horizon we'll rely on Mr. Bird to help. Unless this plan meets any opposition, we'll do that.

- I'm not feeling like leaving yet. This place is calm, I'm enjoying riding around, to tell you all the truth.

[Harry Baldman]

Assist with scouting! Be the best bird I can be!

[Toaster]

"Lots of good stuff to eat here, that's for sure."

[Xantalos]

Now convince myself that the plant can imbue those who eat of it with the healing and regenerative powers it has.

[DoctorMcTaalik]

Ferry stones up to the warbeast, as Comrade "suggested".

((Sorry for the lack of activity over the last few days, I've been frantically trying to not fail a class. I'll be less useless when all that's resolved, hopefully tomorrow.

Also, I seem to recall that Hyenakles was entitled to the loot he found. Might become possessive over the rocks... we'll see.))
