Driving back was fun! I think these things should be able to go faster, but I'm not sure they were in an optimal state or maybe the path we were following could hold better. We saw more solid paths earlier, maybe those were made for these kind of ways of traveling? These paths just make our bus get stuck now and then in the water. That needs a fix for sure!

As we drove back I asked Octavia what she thought about this Harper business. I know we were spending a lot of time with Lincoln and I guess I liked the man, but was he better than Harper. Or was Harper worse than Lincoln or Elona perhaps? Should I chose sides? They all made use of my skills and I had a pretty good life supplying them all I guess. Obviously Octavia was convinced Lincoln was better. Maybe I should talk to someone else about this. I guess I can speak about almost anything to Rianna, but talking about things like that is difficult! It makes my brain hurt, I need a diversion!

Diversion time!
Things suddenly got interesting when we arrived in a place that was spotted by Tesla earlier. She told us some kind of long rails were across the water from our Ark. What these rails were for was a good question indeed. When Tesla took her time to scout around for dangers and to speak to our friends still on the boat, I took some time to have a closer look at the rails and the big wagons around the rails. The rails were metal of some kind and super straight. Wow! That is some impressive metal working. We surely cannot do that anymore. And some of those wagons were standing on the rails with the wheels. They fit perfectly inside the rails and would make those wagons drive a lot more steadily than our bus on those paths we traversed. I found one that looked a lot like it was the wagon to push or pull the others, it had some sort of engine inside, but I would need a lot more time to investigate this before I would understand how it works.

Tesla and the others told us the bus was not going to be able to traverse the river so we would have to leave it behind soon. But we would have to go a little further still before we found the easiest part to cross. I would have to leave it behind soon! I was surely coming back as well!

A little further we found weird big towers of metal, a weird humming sound was in the air. Did these towers make this sound, why would they do this? Another thing to investigate, the world was getting better every day! We should have left The Ark far sooner!

Home again!
With a sad thought I said goodbye for now to the bus and we made our way across the water. A short hike further we came back to our Ark. It had changed. They finished the defenses and the watch tower. Good on them! If Harper and his people were involved in this, it wasn't all bad right?

We were welcomed back, but not all things were fine. Our Elder was nearing his end, he was in a bad shape. Can we do this without him?

I was not able to think straight and needed a good diversion. Luckily we brough back all those goodies from the tower and I set my mind on those things instead of other things.
