[QUOTE="Raidkillsbugsdead, post: 3764703, member: 54134"] [b]Bombs Away[/b] Tell me which of these situations you'd rather be in: Lounging in a hammock between two trees on a late summer afternoon with a warm breeze and bright sun shining down on you as you watched the Corellian sunflower harvest get brought in from the fields or standing on a ten inch ledge fifty feet above the floor of a desert basin while giant vultures dropped rocks on you from above and tried to knock you off that ledge. If you chose the first option, I'm right there with you. If you chose the second, get bent. Befitting our recent luck with these kinds of situations, we found ourselves stuck in the second position. These two vultures were even bigger than the ones before. It seemed that someone must have trained them to do what they were doing, because I for one had never encountered such behavior in birds of this kind before, and we used to get a fair number of vultures back in Meahanna, especially during the dry season. Fortunately for us, their aim was worse than ours, and after a few near hits on their part, we were able to fell them with a scattering of bolts and arrows before one of those rocks had the chance to slug one of us down to the basin floor. Our only fear now was that the noise of the combat had alerted one of the other denizens of the rock. We continued our way up the ledge, eventually finding ourselves in the "craw" of the rock formation looking out over a large spread of normal-sized vulture nests. They were spread out over a tub-like area some two hundred feet long and one hundred feet wide. There were three cavelike openings in the far side wall from where we stood, two right next to each other and rather large, and another, smaller one a ways down from our position. The open "mouth" of the bird-rock opened up above us, giving one the impression of standing in some large beast's belly. The smaller birds ignored us as we slowly advanced towards one of those larger openings. [/QUOTE]
