It was useful, but now I worry for two of my friends I left behind. Now there's a thought, though I haven't seen any animal move that quickly either. Perhaps we should investigate what makes them move!
A map would be helpful, yes. I have some currency from my country, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't work here. Though there's some strange things in my pockets that aren't mine. Maybe one of them can help us get something? Food would be a good start.
