GM: Zach, you sit on a crate that someone unloaded from one of the wagons, and watch the fire. GM: Preacher, aside from the encrusted blood and puss, there is no wound on your leg. Not even a scar or momento of the bullet that peirced your flesh. EvanSB: "My, that healed rather quickly." Preacher: "..." GM: Joan looks at Preacher's wound, touches it softly, "Does it hurt at all?" Preacher: "No." EvanSB: ((How long ago was Preacher shot?)) GM: ((1 week.)) EvanSB: "Shouldn't there be a scar? You did burn yourself." Zoltar: "KAW!" GM: Preacher, Joan stands by you, and eventually asks if you're ok. Preacher: "I'll be fine." GM: Both of you awake next morning to Charlie walking around banging a pot with a spoon near all the people who sleep, most of them grumble and get up, some try to remain sleeping and so forth. GM: Eventually everyone gets loaded back into the wagons, and the hot coals of the bonfire are covered with sand, and you start out again. GM: About half-way there, Charlie informs that, "Those who came to fight should get to the front of the line, women and children in back."
 * Zach gets his tent up after a little frustration, some of Zoltar's laughing, and some waving of a fist (by whom shall remain nameless). He walks to the edge of the firelight and sits, watching the people dance.
 * Zach sits on something and his eyes fixate on the fire, mezmorized.

 * Preacher removes the bandage from his leg, checking on the wound.
 * Zach is a young kid standing at about 5'3". From beneath the wide brim of his black hat sparkling aqua eyes glint mischieviously with his smile. He wears a brown duster that seems rather clean for a duster over a nice looking blue and black suit with polished buttons. Black gloves cover his hands that stick out from his over-long duster.
 * Zoltar sits on Zach's shoulder.
 * Preacher stares down at his leg, taking a hanfull of water and rubbing it on the area to clear away the excess coagulation.

 * Jet gets out of his tent and puts everything back in his pack.
 * Zach drinks some water, poors some on his head, and puts his hat duster and vest on.
 * Zach rubs the gook out of his eyes, looks around the desert and walks over to the bon fire. He grabs some promising looking ashed sticks and puts them in one of his horse bags and pats his horse and feeds it.
 * Zach then gets ready and leaves with the rest.
 * Jet takes some charcoal.
 * Jet goes to the back part of the front of the line.
 * Preacher is already riding ahead a good 2 1/2 miles.

GM: Preacher, Joan rides with you. GM: Jet, you're riding in the back of the front line, with a bunch of brutish looking fellows, most toting rifles. Preacher: "Joan, you should move back to the wagons." Preacher: "Things could get rough." GM: "That's what I'm hoping for." She grins. GM: You eventually get there. There are a whole lot more than 4 tents. People in black clothing, specifically dusters and hats, are walking around. All packin' heat. Preacher: ((Approximately how many people and tents? Any sign of the two priests? And do I recognize anyone else? GM: Don't recognize anyone, dont see the priests, at least not on the outside of the church. One of the men looks at Joan.

There're a lot, about 30 or 40 at least, you guess. GM: Zoltar, you see this exchange between Joan, Preacher, and one of the men. GM: "Long for what?" Preacher: "Why don't you tell me." Preacher: ((Is Joan getting the fuck out of a dodge yet??)) GM: Preacher, Joan looks at you and nods, she rides off back toward the line of men that is getting ever closer. GM: "Tell you what? You are very strange..." Preacher: "Who runs this show?" GM: "That is none of your business." Preacher: "I beg to differ." Preacher: ((Might I try some of the old Overawe?)) Preacher: "I'm going to ask you one more time, who's running this show?"

Zoltar: "KAAAW!" GM: He shakes his head, "I will speak with you no more." He turns and heads toward the church. GM: Preacher, you tether your horse and follow the guy, who slams the door in your face. GM: You press it, and it buldges inward just a tiny bit, and makes a creaking wood sound. GM: Something seems to be holding it shut. GM: You start to hear a strange droning from within. It sounds almost like a chanting.

With several ropes around it, pitted into the ground. GM: "DEAMONS!!!" Preacher: ((What about the candles I lit?)) GM: The candle holders are there, none of the wax is though. Zoltar: "KAW!" GM: There's also a back room of the church, that you assume is the priest's quarters, or a rectory. GM: It looks like they've been making sacrifices. GM: There's about 20 cultists in this room. GM: They all line the walls, looking afraid. Jet: "Whassa so weahd about evewyting in dis pwace! Evewybody goin all cwazy." GM: One of the guys steps foreward, "We are a peaceful community!

GM: He kicks it weakly, it doesn't budge. Preacher: "Again." GM: He kicks it again, it doesn't budge. He's obviously not trying. GM: Joan says, "What were they doing with that table, uhg..."

GM: It's a room with candles burning about. There are two beds that have been pushed together at the far end of the room, and a large table with a whole lot of chairs surrounding it, taking up a good half of the room.
