"How far out do you want to go." Galen asked. "The further away we get from the base, the more we're likely to find. And, we do have vehicles that are adapted to the cold now."

Garth wasn't intending on a hunt, he had brought the Sparrow out to test the Ortolan plating.

"Galen, out fer a ev'nin stroll?"

"Baesal and I are testing the modifications the Ortolan made." he explained. "But, I was thinking we could do some hunting while we're out here. Give our new kitchen staff more to work with."

''Greetings Lord Thul''

She greeted as she exited her truck before turning to Galen

''This is your wheel house. I'll trust your judgement.'' looking at the horizon she continued ''My speeder truck is fully winter proofed on top of being submersible so I can go a long way.''

"Just Garth thanks Master Zyn. An' submersible? Tha' sounds lahk a neat trick." He agrees with a low whistle.

"Mind if ah come along t' watch?"

She could not help but smile. The Thul's conviviality was quit refreshing today

''Very well Garth. Call me Baesal then''

She then taps on the side of her truck

''She does'nt look like much but she's durable...and I'll gladly have you with us if Galen is okay with it''

"Belie' me Baesal, if anyone knows 'bout 'ppearances bein' deceivin' it's me." He replies with a laugh. "Although wi' us smellin' like las' weeks rancid lefovers, we better stay th' hell downwind...or upwind? Y'all know whut ah mean ah'm sure."

"Absolutely. Between the three of us, I'm sure we can find something." he smiled. "Let's ride a bit further out and see what's out there."

''Allright. Ready when you are boys.''

Galen sped ahead leading the way on his bike. The green glowing ribbon in the sky above gave some light, but it was his hunting instincts that led him to a game trail.

"Here. This looks promising."

Garth landed the Sparrow a little ways away and jogged over to the others.

"Lemme clear away some o' that debris Galen." He offers before settling into some good old fashioned blood pumping manual labour.

Observing the trails Baesal passed a hand on the amber the adorned her head ornament. The piece seemed to glow with it's on light

''I am not quite sure of what you found but judging by the size of the tracks and the current climate you might have found a variant of the Spheniscidae family''

She opened her datapad

"Might be a burrowing sub-species. We should look for mounds or something similar"

Galen looked around for what Baesal described. "I don't see anything. We may need a better vantage point or a bit more information about these birds."

Garth looks around at the suggestion of higher ground and tries to nimbly climb a scraggly tree.

Halfway up he took a bad choice and a branch broke. He lashed out, inspired by fear, and caught a stronger branch, eventually hauling himself up to a useful vantage point.

"It looks like there's a...small group of targets to the SouthWest." He calls down over the communicator as he tightens his cloak around his shoulders.

''Roger that'' Baesal replied, getting her micro binoculars out to look at the location Garth indicated

''Oh, yes. Mole-penguins. Not native to the planet, I think, but they adapted quickly and they taste just like poultry.''

Once they were closer, Galen spotted them.

"Wow, there are a lot more than I would have thought. Maybe we can take some back for livestock."

''That would be good. Their eggs are also nutritious and very large.'' she adjusted the sights, passing them to Galen

''Damn, I am hungry now''

"Ah've bin hungry fer days." Garth agreed, his stomach choosing that time to voice its own agreement.

"Some fresh food that ain't been vaccuum sealed sounds...well there ain't words t' describe it."

''I can already hear the sizzling sound of an omelette the size of a pizza...topped with goat cheese and onions'' she added

"An' ah'm sure Countess Riss can use all this ice to make one helluva margarita!"

It takes all of Garth's self control not to start drooling on the spot.

"But how we gonna get them back t' base? Ah got no 'sperience herdin' animals."

''This species buries itself as a defense mechanism'' She explained ''It works fine for most predators but most predators don't have industrial tools and nets.''

"I've never herded anything like these before, but I think we can figure it out." He was still intently watching the creatures.
