Chapter 43

It took some doing, but Blake finally got Humbot's leg unpinned.

"What do we do now?" Blake asked, wiping the sweat from his brow.

"My sensors indicate that there is a cave of some sort to our west. The ground there seems smoothed, as though it were a man-made path."

"Shouldn't we stay put?"

"No, Blake. By the time someone got here from Sharpin, you would have starved to death. We will take the man-made path and see if we can find aid."

Blake considered this for a moment. "Lead on. You've got the lights."
