(IC) It's been awhile and boy are we screwed

Nothing quite like blithely walking into a trap. Oddly enough, the trap wasn't for me. I've been continuing to work on my original mission as I keep getting sucked away to deal with the weird stuff. This Ixion guy and Mr. Sunshine are all tied up in the goings on in Tooele. After a more weirdness involving giant snakes and dwarves, we managed to lose Ratri in a fight with a giant of some kind. She made a bad tactical decision, but sure as hell went out with a bang.

Everyone was a bit shook up after watching a battle buddy explode into a hundred pieces. I think the cleanup was worse for some of them. When folks went to go talk to their crazy sky-parent, we all found ourselves in for a spin. Nobody got real contact, for the first time. The entire group received some gifts along with notice that dad/mom was gonna be busy for awhile.

We took Ratri home for a proper Hindu funeral. All in all it was a decent trip. I ran a quick job for side cash and we had a fun filled afternoon of Bollywood combat in the streets. Yes, there was singing.

After our adventures in Bollywoodland, we came back to Utah. Sophie got herself a warning letter from Rosie the Riveter telling her to stay out of Tooele. That was like raising a red flag to me. Johnny Reb kept going on about some traitor in their "family" and found a fascination with this Occupy crap going on. Camps of hippies all over America are getting financial windfalls while the world goes to hell in a hand-basket.

We decided to go ahead with the scout out of Tooele. It was surprisingly easy to get in. That should have been warning sign number one. The actual source of the oddness was easy to find. That should have been warning sign number two. Nope, we didn't collect our $200. We bypassed jail and went straight to hell. Really! American hell is apparently a giant nuclear wasteland. Our way out caved in behind us, trapping us in the caverns connecting some of the hells to each other.

Now; we've picked up a Greek, are traveling through Hindu hell, have really been gone for two weeks when it's felt like 4 days, Sophie's wanted for treason, her husband is hiding in a mine, I'm wanted for questioning, and Tooele is now a crater. Wonderful career I have...
