Mining can be dangerous, being crushed, suffocated, or trapped and starved to death are only the usual risks. You could also be redirected into the sewer and drowned, shot by other rogue miners, or eaten alive by monsters from the depths.

I let go of the beetle and mine some more copper but before I do I tap it with my pick to make sure it's not a beetle.

Nothing impedes your attempt, except the total lack of a food market.
No, I'm afraid this market only caters in guns,knives,articles of bloodied clothing, and pickled animal parts.

It is, but you can't get it open for some reason, nor find the rough patch to light the matches on. There are pale lights worming through the mud, supposedly luminous worms.

Alazzander shrugs "We just have to get to the old warehouse on the other-side of the city. Then we're home free. Anyway, how would we disguise Sissy?"
Sissy makes and indignant noise "I can be inconspicuous like, watch this right here." It demonstrates, pretending to be some sort of unspecified large lethargic cobra on the ground.

*Thankee.
The first time I used Darkonian's and Jigjam's was way back on page 16 on this thread at the very bottom. (Ignore the diagram above)

You proceed to gather up all the bronze bits which turn out to be real, around you and soon have a veritable collection.
You can hear a strange mumbling voice coming from deeper into the tunnel.

"Can you help me out here? I can't open the box for some reason..." I tell to Samatharina.
I also look for the rough patch to light the matches on using the light from the luminous worms.

"I'm not going to try to figure out how you just did that, but that's perfect, Sissy, you're a freak," I say as I tear down my wanted poster, "Lets just go before the pigs come 'round."

Samantharina takes the box and holds it close to the light from the aquatic worms. "Wow," she laughs "It's covered in spider webs." flicking of small spiders she tears of the thick webs and hands it back to you.

Sissy hisses at you.
It takes a while but your merry band out outlaws find a gate into the city's large circular stone walls. (Most cities are spread apart in this part of post-apocalyptic America, and often have walls like this.)
A sentry in a armored booth near the gate holds a Colt Scavenger AR, and demands ID.

Would consuming a pickled animal piece be unhealthy?

Hmmm...I loiter around a bit - not on the same spot, moving around, ignoring salesmen and brandishing my gun occasionally. - listening in on gossip.
What is this city called anyway? Are there neighbouring cities I can visit?

You slip the guard the fifty and he pockets it. Before leveling his assault rifle and saying "Sorry I'm a communist so I don't accept filthy cash."

You head back up to the surface, and exit the rusty shack.
Would you like to go sell your copper now?
