The second report from Spartacus Kane
11AUG1889 0230

Gloriosky:

We overtook the airsloop approximately 0125. As we boarded, I noted that there were 6 men on board, none appearing to be afflicted with the fate that befell the crew of Cloudwitch. After a short tussle, we took them all into custody, and I will be sending 5 of them on to Col. Spaulding at New Praetoria.

The 6th fellow made the mistake of trying to kick Roller. Roller took exception to this and mauled his right leg from the knee down. In an effort to maintain vector control and prevent possible contamination, I immediately shot the fellow between the eyes and had his carcass burned with lightning guns.

Pursuit of airsloop "Cheetah" 200 Leagues at $1.50 / league $300
1 enemy combatant KIA $200

Total $500


I will not be charging for delivery of the 5 prisoners to New Praetoria, since I seem to have acquired a fine little airsloop and will take it in trade.

As always, your business is appreciated

Pay me
