The Burning Wastes of Carcosa (Session 70)

 SESSION 70: The Wastes of Lost Carcosa (2APR18)

            Travelling through the wastes is big F.U.n… Once you get past the scorching nature of the environment you got a host of other problems. Flesh hungry cannibals. Flesh hungry sandworms. Flesh hungry Purple worms. Then, we got in the way of a bunch of flesh hungry scorpions on their way to a pile of mangled purple man corpses. The corpses displayed giant bite marks and puncture wounds. A grim portent? Probably. 

            With night approaching we camped for the evening, basking under the green glow of Carcosa’s strange moons. Perhaps tomorrow we will find the Nameless City. Now, we will revel in the first mountain of loot that we have seen in a long time. Tomorrow is a fresh hell and we will decide in what direction to punch out towards. The hobos have sleuthed out five possible locations for the aforementioned Nameless City. They are of course spread out amongst the endless wastes so if they really bugger it up resource shortages will become a troubling reality. I'm looking forward to it. 

        Abominations they come a knocking the longer you frolic.
