I have some bad news, sir.
yes? what is it?
it's been 3 days since we sent a man to reconnoiter these rocks, and he has not returned.
just as I feared. these ancient rocks will not give up their secrets easily.
his last message was a bit garbled. something about an impenetrable maze. then we heard a sharp cry, and he was cut off.
damn the denizens of this devilish place! what cruel horrors yet await us?
I fear for the men sir. our food is running low. their spirits are sagging.
yes yes. but we must remain strong! this is an historic discovery! I will not allow it to defeat me, you hear?
yes sir.
it is our manifest destiny! as god on high intended!
indeed, sir.
now bring me my mustache wax and comb. even in this hellish place, I must go out and greet the day.
you are an inspiration, sir.
yes, of course.
