Gilmreth the Awakening
Page 53
Karl shook his head. “Sylvar would not have gone into stasis. He was too focused on saving the people of this world after the nukes hit. But I agree. It’s probably not safe for us to be here.”
“Where should we go?” asked Gail. “We don’t exactly look and dress like the people here probably do. We may not even speak the same language.”
“I don’t think now is the time to awaken Gilmreth either,” said Joshua. “We need to know what we’re up against first.”
Karl nodded. “We’ll pack up a few things and then check out some of the smaller villages on this side of the mountain. Once we get a good feel for the lay of the land, we’ll go check out the large city on the far side. With the number of people there, it would make a good place for our future capital. We can rule like Gods.”
“What if the others in the deeper complex wake up?” asked Gail. “They won’t like what we’re doing.”
“They haven’t yet,” pointed out Joshua. “We also need to see if we can find any signs of Adam. As powerful as he is he shouldn’t be too hard to locate.”
“If he’s anywhere it will be that big city,” commented Karl. “Adam always liked to be the center of everything.”
Gail turned off the viewscreen. She was afraid if she kept it on too much longer the already weakened satellite might fail completely. “We should wait a day or two before we leave. We need to eat more as well as decide exactly what we want to take with us. It might be some time before we can come back to the complex.”
“Very well,” said Joshua. “We’ll wait two days and no more. I’m anxious to get out there and see what type of world we’ve come to rule.”
“If Adam isn’t already in charge,” pointed out Karl. “If he is, I wonder why he didn’t wake us up?”
“We’ll find out when we get out there,” said Gail.
Karl turned and headed toward a door. The small facility had several bedrooms and a fully equipped kitchen. If they were going to be stuck here for several days he was going to make himself comfortable.
