In the year 2034...
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. But they pay is good, the right merchants will pay handsomely for minerals or metals, and the wrong merchants will pay the gear you steal from other miners.

The guys eyes light up when you show him the peasant Regal Hand-Cannon, but he doesn't give the flintlock a second glance.
He gestures for you to follow him and enters a side-study.

The cab driver blanches. "I don't have any arms," He warbles "And if I did I wouldn't use 'em. The Blue-Bloods and the Jigjams are as close as the sides of a coin, well unless they fight the Darkonians in public anyway."

The sheep are across the road now and the cars start to accelerate,
The muscle-car still hugging yours.
Penny quietly loads one of the cartridges Sissy stole from the guard into her single-shot dart-gun.

I say to the driver, "You think you can lose 'em long enough to drop us somewhere discreet, or am I gonna have to start returning fire?"

The cabby lets you in and accelerates.
He has to slow down due to another taxi in-front of him which he can't overtake due to a red muscle car staying level with it.

As you step through the door something hard and sharp smacks you on the back of the head, and the world fades.

You wake up in a small room with a single barred window and a cot.
The only door is made of old dry wood. From outside you can hear whistling.

The driver winces "I'm not sure. I don't want to get held up against a wall for aiding in the escape of fugitives. What did you guys do?"

The Jigjam's Shelby is inching closer to the side of the taxi. Almost close enough to touch through the window now.

The jig-jam's car starts trading paint with the taxi in a shower of sparks and the driver hits the brakes, the Shelby circles the cab once before stopping out of vision. While the cabby tries to hide in the glove compartment Alazzander takes out his Gorgon pistol.
You hear the hood opening and a few short words from one of the Jigjams , followed by a response in Sissy's southern sounding drawl.
You make out the words "Can ah have your gun?"

The door brakes in half in a shower of splinters, but there is no guard outside, only a boiling kettle witch squirts a stream of water from the spout when somebody crushes it with a pick.

There is a set of old stairs leading up out of the basement.

The stairs lead you up into the office where you first met then man in the top-hat, he s now sitting at his desk, polishing the Peasant's Regal in a vaguely creepy way.

The Jigjam with the eye-patch makes a alarmed noise and un-holsters his pistol, but the silencer makes it a long awkward draw. There is no sign of the other bounty-hunter.
