Summary

The journey nears its end as Broken-Hand attempts to finish his journey to find a worthy mentor to hone his abilities.

Background

See Finding the Path for context.

The Meet

Having rested from the endeavor from the previous day and being able to recover from most of the wounds inflicted, Broken-Hand wakes up to find it snowing outside his window. Knowing today may likely be the longest of all, Brutus and him treat themselves to a nice breakfast before heading out to the perilous mountainside. With food in their bellies and determination in their hearts they set out only to find the "legal" path upwards had been blocked off due to the oncoming blizzard. Not deterred in the slightest Broken-Hand and Brutus make their way around the fence, looking for the right opening to leap over. With luck on their side they managed to find a semi-tall tree not too far for them to jump across the barbed and electric fence. Were they average people this would be nigh-impossible, but alas they were not and lept it over with effort. Mnaging to stealth their way through several patrols, drones, and watcher spirits, the pair managed to continue trecking along the long and snowy path, where they met their first obstacle. A Water Spirit that guarded the way under the waterfall. Due to this being Broken-Hand's trial, Brutus insisted he fight it alone. And fought it he did, through freezing cold blow after freezing cold blow, Broken-Hand managed to strike back just as hard and eventually fell the powerful spirit which granted him passage as it faded back to its own plane to recooperate. Whilst inside the cave Broken-Hand saw various paintings along the wall depicting the story of the Native Americans through both the 5th and 6th world. From being hunters and gatherers, to the raiding and pillaging of their land, their oppression under america's rule, the discovery of magic, and the war that ensued. Then finally the Great Ghost Dance and the widespread death and destruction it brought. A vibrant painting depicting the past and all of its ups and downs. Though with the storm brewing heavily outside, the pair drifted off to sleep amidst the comfort of the cave and the fire Brutus made.

The Plan

Exitting the cave the duo managed to avoid dettection once more via drones, spirits, and patrols. Though something DID notice them, and with their guard up eventually they were approached by a figure clad in armored snow apparel asking if they knew the whereabouts of Thunder Fang, offering them payment in exchange for the intel.
