1.110A
When you arrive, you find that the outer passage has completely collapsed. Tumbled rocks fill the corridor. You shout desperately the names of Kal, Quisi, and Harlan.
At first your cries are met with only a persistent thrumming from below. Then, you hear a muffled voice call out in response. You can’t make out the words, but it sounds like Kal!
You'll need to clear away this rubble as quickly as possible, taking care not to make the situation worse by causing the rubble to shift. You're about to get started when you see a faint red glow rising up from the dark, accompanied by the sound of heavy, metallic footsteps: a pair of Crimson Guardians.
If you haven't already, complete the COLLAPSE! (KAL, HARLAN, QUISI) mission, and gain the BURIED SURVEY TEAM (KAL IVER, HARLAN VOS, QUISI VOS) mission.
Search the General set for 1 Shifting Rubble and 2 Crimson Guardians and shuffle them together to form the Rescue deck. Then shuffle in each subject of this mission (Kal, Harlan, and/or Quisi) who has not yet been rescued (i.e. checked off next to the mission name on your campaign tracker).
Dig out rubble to save your friends before time runs out!
If you are at the Drenching Chamber or Scuttler Network, go to 156.1. If you are at Orlin's Vault, go to 158.1.
1.110B
If Harlan is in play or attached to the mission, go to 1.110E. Otherwise, read:
Grunting and straining with the effort, you shift a large shard from along the passageway wall. Behind it is a dark, cramped alcove containing the battered, dusty, sniffling, but very-much alive Quisi Vos.
She wraps her arms tightly around your neck as you pull her free. Then she looks up, her eyes wide. “Where’s my dad?” she asks, her voice rising in worry. “Dad? Dad!? Where are you??”
Clear Quisi with to convince her to move to safety, reassuring her that you will find her dad.
1.110C
If Quisi is in play or attached to the mission, go to 1.110E. Otherwise, read:
As you set aside the next rock, you see darkness beyond. Immediately you shine a light into the space, revealing a cramped pocket with Harlan Vos crouched inside. Blood from a nasty scalp wound has caked the rock dust to his face, but his eyes are bright and alert, and he immediately helps you clear more rocks away.
As soon as he is out, he looks around. “Where’s Quisi? Have you found her?” Before you can answer, he strides back to the collapse and begins frantically lifting rocks and casting them aside. “Quisi! Quisi, can you hear me? Don’t be afraid! I’ll find you! I’ll find you!!”
Clear Harlan with to convince him to move to safety, reassuring him that you will find his daughter.
1.110D
As you shovel piles of gravel out of the way, you suddenly unearth a grasping hand! You grab, pull, and with a roar of effort, Kal Iver erupts from the rubble. Though a little bloodied and covered in dust and grime, he appears to be all right.
Clear Kal with to convince him to get to safety.
If you STOOD UP TO KAL, continue reading:
Kal smiles, his teeth bright against the grime. “You didn’t think a little cave in would finish me off, did you?” He clasps your hand. “Not me. I’m in my prime!” With that, Kal sits down heavily, and his voice drops in timber. There’s no trace of humor in his tone as his eyes lock with yours. “It’s a good thing you made it back to us in time, my friend. Thank you.”
Each Ranger soothes 2 fatigue.
1.110E
“Dad!” Quisi yells. She runs to Harlan, who scoops her up in his arms and hugs her tightly. “Oh my beautiful baby girl,” he says, his voice choking with tears. In response, Quisi sobs into his chest with relief. “You’re all right," he says softly. "You're all right.” Harlan looks at you over his daughter’s head, his eyes glittering with tears.
Each Ranger soothes 2 fatigue. Add 2 to both Harlan and Quisi.
1.110F
Not far from the collapse, you find an Estian chamber seemingly unaffected by the quakes. Dust falls from the ceiling, but the room is free from any dangerously shifting rubble. Your friend should be safe here for now.
Attach this human to BURIED SURVEY TEAM facedown and check off their corresponding bubble.
1.110G
The ground shakes once more. Your friend shouts in alarm as a fresh shower of rocks falls between you.
Shuffle this human back into the Rescue deck.
