Jade yawned at the techno-babble that Din and Ariel were getting into. She had little interest in the theoretical quantum physics or that shit that they discussed. "That's fascinating," she said mockingly, much to the chagrin of Ariel, who glared in response. Jade was a bit interested, but there was no sense in debating empty theoretics if they were not looking for a way back right now. "but you know what else is fascinating? A whole new world to explore!" the saiyan girl said, smiling at her clerical companion and android. 

"Jade is right," Din added in "It would be wise to get to know this environment better if we plan to be here for an extended period of time." Din had determined that they were indeed in a subterranean environment, deep underground as opposed to just a cliffside tunnel city. There were also high traces of pollutants in the air, suggesting intelligent life nearby, post industrial civilization. 

Ariel sighed, "I suppose you both are right, it is not worth risking our safety debating sciences and magic in an unfamiliar setting". She took out her prayer book and chanted a prayer of protection for the three. "May god watch over us".

Jade then picked up on noise, footsteps, people. "Hey, listen!" she spoke up, pointing in the direction of the sounds. The group moved closer to get a better view, seeing the procession getting closer. Din spoke, "The positions and the visuals suggest ritual behavior, funeral rites to be exact" he said, pointing to the coffin. 

"Lets follow them" Jade suggested, "It could show us more of this place, and maybe we could find more people to figure out what happened" 

Ariel was reluctant though, "This place feels dark, these people are twisted, not evil but corrupted. I wouldn't trust them,"

Din chimed in, "There is always some truth to the words of natives, and it is better than nothing. I say we listen to the Saiyan and follow the crowd"
