 Finally on the road, the party and workers are set upon by bandits, who prove a touch challenge but are finally taken down and left to die, though sadly one of the workers is also killed in the fracas. He is carefully buried and a note made of where his grave is. Approaching Liarus, the party make the decision to wait for a Serradic patrol that Henry'​s intel tells them should come along the road once a day, and follow it back towards Liarus to get a bit further ahead on the road. They manage to do this without being spotted - until that patrol heading back passes another one heading out directly towards the party, at which point there is not enough time to get party, workers and wagons well enough off the road to not be spotted. A fight ensues, which the party wins, but unfortunately only manage to kill //most// of the Serradic soldiers - one escapes back along the road to the west despite Otto's best attempts to chase them down. Finally on the road, the party and workers are set upon by bandits, who prove a touch challenge but are finally taken down and left to die, though sadly one of the workers is also killed in the fracas.

-Choosing to get off the road, Emily is able to guide them through the Flux and find them decent tracks for the wagons to be pulled along. This unfortunately does not protect them from magpies, which are very attracted by the shiny silvery forms of Emily and Felix and start to attack. They are killed easily enough, but not before some of them manage to peck Emily, Felix and Chloe on unprotected skin, which leaves them all feeling oddly drawn to shiny things themselves. A resulting attempt to loot the magpies'​ nest requires yet another, much larger, magpie to be killed too.+Choosing to get off the road, Emily is able to guide them through the Flux and find them decent tracks for the wagons to be pulled along.

 Having successfully forded a treacherous river with the help of some rope, the party are welcomed to the desert by traditional flux sandworms, with a few hopeful vultures hovering overhead in case corpses (or the pile of minced flesh that is Otto) are available. The sandworms are dispatched and the vultures left happily munching on them, while the party moves on to find the area of sand they'​re actually supposed to be digging up. As the desert becomes more desert-y around them, they meet a group of nomads at an oasis, who in addition to goading Emily into attempting to eat a rock (this doesn'​t go well) also share the information that apparently another group very similar to this one has recently been digging up some other nearby bit of desert too. This concerns the party, and Felix finds out from their workers that indeed another group of workers from the same quarry was hired a few weeks before, by someone who concealed their identity - not in the open fashion that Henry Cargan hired them. Having successfully forded a treacherous river with the help of some rope, the party are welcomed to the desert by traditional flux sandworms, with a few hopeful vultures hovering overhead in case corpses (or the pile of minced flesh that is Otto) are available.
