Telepathy detected? Astrid thought in a moment of confusion. I guess telepathy being real too is about the least of today's revelations after magic, pixies, teleportation, other worlds and inverse geography.

She tapped the notification again and began searching the PiP's settings for a slider or button which would turn off the psi-shielding, at least temporarily. Someone was clearly trying to contact her telepathically. Or at least broadcasting a telepathic message. If there was one thing they needed right now it was information. It could even be a distress call from whatever just crash landed nearby.

Perhaps she was being reckless but she took some comfort from the fact that it was described as telepathy and not 'mental domination' or 'psychic manipulation' or something more sinister like that.

"Alright, lets go! I will follow your lead!"

Kyle ensures that he has everything secure and three section staff in hand, then gets ready to follow Astrid to the site.

Kyle takes out his bank cards to examine them, keeping an eye on Astrid every now and then to ensure he does not lose sight of her.

"Yes." Kyle ponders whether these are voice activated, but he will say yes out loud and also touch to select the affirmative option if one can be seen.

Each card projects a window of a 5x5 grid, attempting to insert a silver coin one cause the coin to disappear, and a coin image to appear in one of the boxes. Thinking about removing it with the card in hand, cause the coin to appear in the other hand. Inserting all of the silver coins cause one box to have the coin image with a counter of 15 in the lower right corner of the box.

Kyle inserts the silver coins into the grid. Experimenting with removing the first one, then putting it back, along with all the others. Once all of them are in and the 15 is showing, he muses "Handy" to himself, then puts the bank cards and everything else away, ready to follow Astrid.

A two hour hike through the jungle brings you to the crash site of what looks like a 50 meter long cigar covered in multicoloured reptile scales with 8 warp grey cigars with open rear ends evenly spaced around one end of the ?craft?, there is a long tear in the side and belly of the cigar shape.

Kyle approaches both curiously and cautiously, wondering if anyone had been inside and survived. He moves to keep as silent and hidden as possible while still observing the cigar shaped craft from different angles. Curiously will probably win out over caution thoiugh, so if he needs to get closer to inspect things more closely then he does so, looking both and and into the long tear in the side and belly of the shape.

Looking through the tear, Kyle sees single compartment taking up about a quarter of the craft's length, a bulkhead with a hatch is immediately towards the grey cigar shapes, which looks to be the back half of the craft, a bulkhead with a hatch opposite blocks view of the other quarter of the craft. The walls and ceiling are giving off a purplish glow. There appear to be two bunk like objects and some kind of terminal with a open compartment in it in this chamber.

Kyle looks at the ground to see if there are any tracks leading to or from the craft. He looks around for Astrid to see what her reaction is to all of this, and considers going into the compartment. Kyle ponders whether the purple glow is dangerous, or merely providing illumination. Most likely the latter for the occupants or former occupants, if they have bunks here.

 

The man squints at the terminal to see if he can find any further details. After deliberating momentarily, he cautiously enters the compartment to examine the terminal and interior of the place, looking and listening for any sign of occupants or recent signs of occupants.
