as the rest of the day's pass wit neal selling his wears and purchasing new products to sell further up at worlds end, mainly purchasing from the mayor hornsy's house where there's a load of old artefacts and machines which the tech hunters would LOVE. meanwhile, grimmus kept his ass in the bar, having an early morning bit of grog while pondering about both his dream and that spear, with him wondering how can one of his kind's weapons appear in a place like this

eventually, neal came to mention that there leaving for World's end

grimmus: alright! here we go

and they set out from the north gate past squin and into the river valley and finally reaching the HN border

Neal: alright, here's the dangerous part, we need to sneak past the patrols, this is where you come in grimmus

grimmus: and the plan?

Neal: you are to sneak to the farm which is west of Bad Beeth, the-

grimmus: what a stupid name for a place

Neal: ...as I was saying, you are to head to that farm and light it on fire at night, then you hightail it over past Bad Teeth. got it?

grimmus: yep

grimmus, under the veil of night, passes through by walking underwater by using a long grass straw to breath. at the farm, he sees several animals lazing about, he then reaches into his bag and pulls out several bottles of liquid to help the fire. 

he then climbs the roof of the sandy storehouse to find stuff to burn. inside the storehouse, several shelves, boxes and crates of stuff clutter the room, one thing he noticed is a still and several bottles of grog

he begins to douse the still and wheatstraw in both grog and the liquid given to him and with whatever left, he either drinks or spreads elsewhere keeping at least  4 bottles of grog left. he then lit a small trail of doused rope and GTFO of there to then use the grog to light the fields on fire

a few minutes later, grimmus rushed back to the group

Neal: did you do it?

before grimmus could answer, an explosion and a flash of light can be seen over at the farm as the fire detonated the still with farmers, as well as patrols near Bad Teeth, rushed towards the farm

Neal: well...that answers my question, let's go

they then quickly made their way across the open ground, huddled in a bunched formation and passing next to the city going unnoticed. they then got up the hill and onto the plateau, they then travel past groups of starving bandits and herds of wild bulls
