Terre Haute expedition: Camping Day 1

[It's been a more or less uneventful day of travel for the expedition team. Not unexpected for the first leg of such a trip, and with any luck, it will stay that way.

As the sun starts to get low in the sky, Felix signals the group with a sharp whistle to stop, shortly after he feels the change. They've entered the Dead Zone. That sudden loss of power for anyone used to that sort of thing. Not an easy thing to adjust to, at first.
]

"We've crossed into the border of the Dead Zone now. We should stop here for the night. Those of you with experience, help set up camp as needed. And I recommend a few of you working out a watch schedule. You never can tell what might be out here."

[blink blink. What? That's a very curious thing to say there]

Chindara? [Or rather "Six legs? How is that possible? People aren't born with six legs."]

[Fortunately, Sunny's intonation gets her meaning across nicely. Aradia chuckles.]

Yep. Trolls like me don't start our lives as miniature versions of ourselves, like humans do. Instead we hatch as these fat little grubs, and we wriggle around like that until it's time to pupate. [she wriggles a little to illustrate.] You know what a pupa is?
