Three Sticks Lake III: Return to the Jade Baobab

Characters in Season 10: 

Naida: A  Deft Yellowlander Climate Refugee and Scope (member of the Legion of the Far Sight). The Legion is a semi-secret society that tries to fight crime on the roads of the Grasslands and around the Circular Sea. Bone grenade aficionada. She is accompanied by Ajax, a grumpy exiled Cat Lord with a serpent tail and Otis, the animatronic bear. 

Azure Dee: A Deft Blue God Cultist on her journey to the Black City where she is supposed to bring the apocalypse by sacrificing Vile organs. The Vile are a species of (demonic?) rulers from the Long Long Ago. She is accompanied by Cataract, a Wire-and-bone biomechanical salamander. She has undergone mutation after being exposed to a vome infection that made her muscles grow uncontrollably. The mutation has slowed down after a week of therapy sessions in the solarium of the Pylon Kraal.

Saffron, a Wise Black Gold Industrialist Machine Human whose personality was uploaded to a cybernetic prairie dog after being killed by Johnny-7's auto immune system. Outfitted with positronic double brain, extendable limbs and laser eyes. Accompanied by a furry animate kite. Seeking a prosthetic body for mother.

Sarqo, a Deft Purplefolk Doghead Anarchist, looking for a clue to abmortality in order to break it. After disappearing in the Maze of Light for what felt like a lifetime he is able to cast Full Spectrum Radiation Blast. Honorary member of the Clan of Sanitation in Red Bear Village.  

While Sarqo, Saffron and Azure spend the night in the synthetic baskets, Naida awakes in the Redlander Autowagon to the smell of coffee from the nearby Floating Barge. Chatting with a caravan guard she realizes that they are professionals and although they don't like Formatore very much, they probably won't betray him even if offered substantial bribes. 

Azure visits He-of-the-Second-Hand in the town hall where the current interims leader of the Jade Baobab discusses matters with his advisers from the different clans. But when she inquires about Formatore's reputation has a body dealer for the princes she senses that He-of-the-Second-Hand knows more than he admits.

Saffron meets with Formatore in the Exibitorium, a scrimshaw paneled museum of Biomancy, and channels their Cogflower background to get him to talk shop. Formatore freely admits that he is making deals with He-of-the-Second-Hand and that his employer is Bone Kaolin 2-Body from the Porcelain Citadel. In the past trading Biomancy tech with the princes had been frowned upon among the villagers. Formatore also ponders to offer "service positions" for the Greenlander refugees who the heroes had just rescued from the Vome Nest. 

Sarqo mingles with the Greenlanders but his vague warnings about slavers who sold naive travelers into indentured servitude is met with incredulity. Disillusioned he reunites with the others at the autowagon where they discuss the situation. 

When they see the floating barge being loaded and ready to leave with Formatore and half a dozen Greenlanders they quickly hatch a plan: First they will take out the Porcelain Princes, then they will address the problems at the village. On their way to the hidden camp Azure uproots a tree to block the road. Naida and Ostins take position on the hill above the camp while the others carefully approach the walker. Azure camouflages herself with shrubbery and manages to climb onto the walker unseen, while Naida sends Ajax to support her. To Ajax horror Azure quickly opens the hatch and throws him onto one of the princes while the other shoots Azure in the shoulder. Ajax stuns his victim while Naida snipes the other through the windshield. Covered in gore from the headshot Azure makes short work of the stunned princes.
