Correction...Should be absence pass to Sergeant Tim. (Not time, but we could of course extend it beyond a week if need be.) Oh, I may have to add another Forest Kingdom soldier on board...he needs dental work, and counseling regarding objects called a camera in conjunction with destruction of idol at temple of Kalu.

Sergeant Tim reporting here, I was delayed for a day and am just now learning of my impending trip to Mongo.

Wondering if earplugs might be available for Day 4 of the ordeal? Strictly for the sound of the gong, mind you, no slight intended at the high priest's cackling or lecturing, he is always...interesting.

It's gonna be a long week, heh.

Sergeant Tim, shovel in hand

Sergeant Tim:

No backtalk is permitted. You have your orders and ample time to prepare. You have the weekend to straighten your affairs and will depart this Monday. Be warned that wisecracks are frowned upon, and your posting above nearly doubled your time, but Officer Torch spoke kindly of you, but beware....you will be watched carefully, (but on the Day 1 assignment, whew, you're by yourself)....though a televisor will be monitoring you. No earplugs for Day 4, since the High Priest, at his whim, randomly strikes the gong between cackling and lecturing...hence, you would offend him by wearing such a contraption while he is doing so. I'd venture a guess the lateral movements are roughly 5 inches maximum decreasing with time, and the frequency is roughly 18Hz, well above the point of human disintegration, so not to worry. Oh, the shovel is large and a bit heavy. However, this should buff you up satisfactorily for solo feeding of radium to Vultan's atom furnaces. Have a nice day. Mighty Toran-King of Forest People, "a strange but honest race on Mars"

Stifles the backtalk, nixes the wisecracks, and starts packing for Mongo (making sure to leave Happy's camera behind on Mars). The Sarge accepts the fact that day one in the tunnel of terror will clear his sinuses for weeks. He also withdraws his earlier request for a blindfold during Vultan's shadow puppet show. It's likely imprudent to wear a blindfold with Orso around anyway, especially if honey is on the Sky City menu for the day.

Memo from King Vultan to Sergeant Tim

Blindfold??!?? BLINDFOLD??!??

This is King Vultan....I was told to expect you for a couple days for some work in my sky city prison, and had an easier second day for you as an entertainment break. Blindfold, huh? Well, we might have to alter plans. Thought you were asking for earplugs during your gong polishing day with the high priest. Seems you may be upsetting several leaders in the various kingdoms of Mongo and Mars. Toran has been informed of this, and Emperor Ming has picked up transmissions from the Forest man signalling from a tree on Mars. We'll be expecting you, but the itinerary may now be subject to change. Tim wants a blindfold? We shall get him a blindfold! King Vultan
