I try to eat the sphere at the recommendation of Cumflutter. If it's too big, I give it a solid lick.

Your rifle-slug hits the knight in the back and he falls dead from his horse, landing in the dust and bouncing along the trail before rolling to a stop.

After taking the orb from Rose's hand, then licking its surface, you heal up 2 HP.

I toss it to whoever else needs healing.

You gain a new Skill: Relic Master!

Whenever you use a strange relic, you roll 2d20 on the required Wits test.

I should just retire the rifle now as it'll never make a shot like that again :lol:

Rose draws out a cigarette from her pocket.

"Any of you boys got a light?"

Doc will offer his lighter.

With that done, he'll retrieve the nearest horse and swap his saddlbags to it before Cumflutter can shoot it.

Rose smokes the cigarette as she watches the gang gather their things together and prepare to move out.

"I'll trade in my race-horse for one of your bicycles."


There are three horses (including Rose's race-horse) milling around the area if any of you want to trade in your cast-iron steeds for flesh-and-blood ones?

"Help yourself, ma'am," doc replies, indicating his own now-discarded bicycle.

She walks over to her race-horse and hands Doc the reins.

"So, where did you say you was headed?"
