Set Things Right

Things nearly get out of hand, but after much running to and fro, the strange invasion of umbrella stands from the Impossible Dimensions is defeated by a jellied candy. Perhaps you and the nutcase in the tesseract machine will meet again? In the meantime, there are other good works to be done.

You now have 1 x Beacon of Hope.

The Savage Wilderness

Very few planets are entirely consumed by civilization. Some have regions which are positively uncouth.

A peaceful settlement once stood here. Now there's nothing but burned-out buildings and slain bodies.

It appears no one has passed this way in some time.

Trace the Clearer Trail Back to Civilization

There's no use going any further. If the rest of the planet is this poorly maintaned, one might as well view it from the star port's observation decks.

Blast a New path

A straightforward challenge

No mutant shrubbery wll stand in the way of progress!

Build a Bridge

A straightforward challenge

Why muck about in the mud and the thickets when a decent engineer can use advanced tools to build a soaring monument to science in a few meagre hours?

Cover Your Tracks

A straightforward challenge

What better way to get rid of that nagging feeling of being followed than to make it look like no one went that way?


A Long Trudge Back

Were there any pools of acid? Giant crystals? Soaring cliff of fire? Nope. Just miles and miles of poorly-maintaned roadway.

The bustling starport has starships departing at all times of the day or night. How hard could it be to book passage on one?

If they're not familiar with a species, less scrupulous starship captains will often happily transport unknown creatures as "pets" in their cargo hold for a pittance.

A Sclero?

There are many words for "flying saucer." The smaller kind, which no one really wants to fly, are called "Sclero." That might be the plural form. Regardless, they're easy to pilot and no one else wants to do it.

Despite having to wear a collar that says "Fifi," the hold of a starship isn't the worst way to travel. Although some of the crew did mutter something about life support being a waste of energy for "most cargo."

Mobius Spark 2 failed in a challenge! Try again and you may have better luck...

Not the kind of success you were hoping for...

It seems some "Recruiters" remember certain tales of a rampaging space monster, enough so that they look the other way when enslaved relatives of its victims gang up on it one horrible night. But no one knows what happened to ...its body.

Go Into The Light

Between Eternities

It turns out death is a relative experience. Lots of species consider it merely an inconvenience.

Has the time come, at last, to return to a semi-mortal state? In the long reaches of forever, the temptations of temporality call like an ice-cream vendor on a sweltering day.
