Chapter Six388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltI8bvdZ3C
“Sixth Finger”
They listened carefully for every step of the way until Dhanel Marce concluded,388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeCNzutez7
as he always does, with the already familiar question. They stared at each388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡziszrgsbRB
other for the next couple of steps, silently as if trying to decide who among388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSh2DrM4gg
them should go first, but eventually Harigar Rhim would decide for them. He took388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfklOvrXBHt
the opportunity before any mutual agreement came to be, but they all would have their388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AhCk1fBzx
chance regardless, if so willing...388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwsx9Cf1EOa
“So, I’ll start with the more obvious question and not just to me, I hope” he smirks388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs9v6Ah0Q4
while looking around his companions “but the time to complete this mission seems388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68MXuWwufA
awfully scarce considering how far away from reaching the top of that mountain we388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLUML4XFd8
still are. I don’t care how small that facility might be, it is still way up there and well,388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs6R4spkjgj
we are still down here. A few hours?! The time alone required for us to get to that top388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdZrnIMiYk
will easily use them up.”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ612dmQMSpi
“That is true but what are you exactly asking me? If I am sure of the amount of time388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSL0vnPkhy
made available to us, or you just expect something like that to be overlooked?”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmUpHyw3Pj
“You jest boss, but you know exactly what I am asking. How are we to make it up388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdHlbahcSz
there?” Dhanel Marce smiles: “Yes of course. Well, there is a transport waiting to take388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCzo8DHIkb
us all the way to the top, right after we cross those soggy woods up ahead. A small train388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlMeW7SMbT
station rests amongst the stubborn cliffs overlooking the violent sea, and once there,388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigv2FhlEts
we will take the train that transports any and all cargo towards that facility.”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPmAZ3k1Hl
“Excuse me... a train?” asked Deena. “Indeed, a train that will take us up the stream388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKojMYnFat
if you will. There is nothing electric about it when it comes to how it is powered so388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2giFpXGQeC
the EMP shouldn’t have any influence on it. Its engine is much like the trains of old388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMM73cSibVT
running on steam so its motion should not be hindered. We will lack the electrics388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxk4YxJSWa
aboard but that tells little to us; no lights inside the cart and no voice to greet us, but388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSQ65wcshN
that is about it. What matters is that it will take us up there and will do so at a good388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1le95wOf3
speed. Just picture it as a train that runs vertically instead of horizontally.”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzOx8dVEnJ
“It cannot be just that...” Harigar Rhim stares at that mountain “Without any388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIPumR7BeW
assistance of electrics how is it capable of moving alongside that mountain? I mean its388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLbt2OOeuV
tracks must stand almost vertical at times and there is no way it can run on them on388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6jiWkLvgt
metal wheels alone.”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYjljeIEpFP
“You will all see.” their captain continues “I have travelled in one of these before,388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DS0lZMu9v
long ago, and I do use the term loosely. Both of us, myself and the one I was with388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzu6gt9nFrl
at that time, well we weren’t actually inside the train when we caught a ride on it.388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBpXimQ2ue
Hanging desperately to it is more like it. Anyway, it is nothing new by any means, but388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxkeDuV25y
just something seldom utilized for how often does one find the need to travel both fast388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwqs53xLGmQ
and vertically, in a way that an elevator won’t cut it. The ride should not take us more388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbbUV7YMvv
than twenty minutes at best.”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eCJLiTwkD
“So, this transport will deliver us inside the facility?”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk90G2rJqnq
“I am afraid not Celle, as per these schematics” Dhanel Marce shows them to her388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTNscoQJIr
“it will instead drop us off in the second building, more explicitly inside the warehouse388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3RohlMsgNt
where loaders and other similar machinery take shelter. There are three buildings atop388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfm2MAp5ugk
that mountain: the facility, but also the warehouse where all sorts of things are stored388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7I5F9B3eP
within, and of course loaded into the train or relieved from it. That is where we will388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc0VWZgS3uM
step out. Lastly, the smallest of the three and built slightly apart from the other two;388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDvtn36BQn
where all the main electric settings are, such as generators, conductors, that sort of388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yCjji4WyA
thing. The train will drop us off and after that, once we step outside, things will surely388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tC0OBHMsl
be placed in a better perspective.”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGYPr3RDQCK
“Sir if I may... unofficially... I mean off the record; do you have any idea about...”388Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpvAi6SuLsd
“Deena, wait!” Celle extends her right arm making her stop “Someone else is here...”
