Chapter 82 - The Natives are Restless

It has become apparent that the initial assessment that the natives are a friendly lot may have been an error.

Late last night we discovered that the alcohol in our camp had been stolen by a tribe lying just to the north of Sunrise (their location is codenamed Sea Sprite).

The natives closest to Sunrise appear to be hostile to this other lot and remain on good terms with our explorers and after leading them in a war dance and showing them how to use the local spears a counter-raid was mounted and supplies of alcohol recovered.

Unfortunately as this is composed the morning after Hoots is nowhere to be seen, we fear he has been wounded or worse in the raid.
