Looting the rooms
There is a pile of bones, with a couple of cocooned bodies in it. There is a pile of eggs in the corner. MichelStMarie and I destroy them. The room has no other exits.
RachelRoss checks out the room to the east. Empty except for a couple of broken statues, but RachelRoss finds something metallic and large under the rubble. It a piece of a support for a light ship's cannon. She also finds scraps of British military uniforms.
In the scorpion room, we examine the bodies. They appear to be humans in clothes of American make. There is an elephant gun, and one of the bodies has a bandoleer of ammo for it. I grab the elephant gun and ammo. There is another body wearing a coat woven of copper with a strange buckle. Third body has an awesome bowie knife. RachelRoss takes the knife.
Return to Camp
We look to the north and find some further corridors, but we are exhausted and decide to go back to base camp. When we arrive, we find that savages have also attacked the camp. The took some casualties, but no deaths, and retreated to the ship. We join them.
I clean up the gun.
MichelStMarie examines the vest. He finds a dial. He turns it, and the vest whines, shimmers and almost disappears.
Next Day
We return to where we left off. On the way, we notice that someone has remove all the bodies; all that remains are pools and streaks of blood.
Angry Savages Attack
We are examining the statue of the Knowledge God, when the savages attack again!

I step forward and kill the last of the first wave (but the rest have just climbed over the ledge and are charging us.
