Elyot, Keani and Alextra escaped the ancient monster at the heart of the catacombs under the city. But the Commonwealth enforcers launch search shuttles, and the side of the mountain offers no cover. The city above? No longer a safe haven for them.
But below lies impenetrable jungle, stretching to the horizon in all directions. Keani loathes the idea of facing its many dangers. But she loathes the idea of abandoning her new friends even more.
She fails to talk them out of it, but soon enough they will know just why facing squads of enforcers struck her as the better plan.
"The Jungle of a Thousand Easy Deaths" is the third episode in the ongoing monthly science fiction adventure serial TALES OF THE CHAI MAKHANI TRIO.
