The Cart Incident

"I picture this as the beginning of Akellon's Skynet going berserk. In the grim darkness of the future, mankind is brutally hunted down by self-aware cybernetic carts."

-Dr. Hatari, spectator

"...Please tell me I didn't just kill the gnoll."

-Sszeyl of Orgolloyss

When the current Akellon party investigated the hideout of the Redmaw gang, they came across a cart near the back entrance of the cavern complex. Since there were no draft animals available to pull the cart, the party planned to push it, until it was discovered that the cart weighed less than what Sszeyl could lift. Without another word, Sszeyl lifted the cart up onto his shoulders, and with the party following, carried it back to the clearing where Terri, Papa, Barshal, and Fredrick Henderson waited.

While on the way, Derish Snowpaw made a wisecrack about it being fitting to use drow as pack animals. Sszeyl ignored this, primarily because he remembered that Fuzzy was still in the cave devouring dire rat remains. Upon remembering, he whipped around toward the cave entrance, bringing the cart with him... and catching Derish in the arc of his swing.
