Algol: I have a bag for any finds, a compass to find my way, and a lantern to see in dark caves or temples. But I still wish I had a gun and a whip. One never knows when one might need them.
Algol: Some of the branches fallen off the trees because of the heavy burden of snow are really huge...
Algol: ... really huge.
Algol: Looks like I found a cave entrance that looks promising.
Algol: Can you see it? I must go in and investigate.
Algol: I's a good thing that I brought the lantern along.
After some time...
Algol: Whew, I found some artifacts, but no booby traps. In any case it's harder to get out than it was to get in. The slope is rather steep.
Algol: Now I must use my compass to find the way home.
Algol: Home appears to be that way...
Algol: The others will be thrilled to see my finds!
Algol: This is a strange phenomenon. A tree has grown over a rock, and the weight of the tree has become so big that it has cracked the rock!
Algol: It appears to be an ants' nest. There are about a million little black ants crawling around. They appear quite sluggish because it is still rather cold. But I still wish I had a whip to keep them at bay. Fortunately they are not able to bite through my thick shoes.
At home Algol uses a magnifying glass to examine his finds.
Algol: Do you think these are troll artifacts?
Niks: The metal objects definitely look like troll artifacts.
Naks: But the blue pearly thingy looks more like fairy or elf manufacture.
Algol: Maybe it is a proof of early trade between trolls and elves. I must go back later and try to find more objects. There seem to be a lot of caves in that forest, so there may be enormous buried cultures lying under the surface.

Look slike you had an excellent expedition, Algol. The artifacts you found were very nice, too. I hope you do make a great discovery! But then, to claim that you discovered it, you have to write all these papers about it and that's not too fun. Well, big people do, at least.
