Into the Foxhole, Mega Entrance
As Adanole, Panther, and Buntaro's ship landed, the Captain of their ship, Pearl remarked that something seemed wrong due to the port being a veritable ghost town. Pearl's thoughts proved correct when the group was attacked by several strange beings armed with Pickaxes and Flame Pieces. The battle against the strange assailants went well, but the enemies had the advantage of sheer numbers, to which the trio were thankfully aided by Ledaal Anako and Cathak Geriun, who happened to be nearby. Many of the strange enemies were taken down due to Panther's bow and blade, Buntaro's strength, Geriun's firewand, and Anako's magic. Adanole proved to be a liability in the battle, failing to destroy one of the strange machines and even taking significant scars of war in the process. As the machines fell into a state of certain defeat, the remaining machines flew away only to be replaced by a lone blue mechanical warrior with a hand cannon.
This new foe proved to be tougher than the first set of machines, singlehandedly forcing the 5 Terrestrials to give the battle all they had. At the start of the encounter, the Blue Gunman jumped into a hole, upon which Adanole followed and failed to connect with his specialized throwing knives. Panther soon followed while Buntaro was looking for the blue machine and Geriun and Anako were aiming their shots and spells respectively. The lone machine summoned a ring of leaves to block Panther's arrows and then responded by summoning a floor of lava underneath Panther and Adanole, which Panther managed to jump up to avoid, Adanole not being as quick. Buntaro finally found the robot and proceeded to break off a chunk of the building that Geriun and Anako were standing on and then threw it in the hole. Panther evaded with ease while the Blue Bomber took a grazing shot, with Adanole being knocked out and left dying.
Geriun finally finished off the warrior with a well-placed shot from his firewand after Anako blasted him with Ice Hornets. After the robot dissipated into energy, the group remembered that Adanole was still trapped under rubble in the whole. Through deus ex machina, they managed to dig Adanole out and stabilize him before he died from his wounds.
