Quote:> Check out the codex.
You open up your inventory again and pull out the electronic codex. It is a small, palm-sized thing with hardly any weight to it. There appears to be no visible method of inputting information. No buttons or touch screen to speak of. The only distinct features are a small dome shaped wire speaker, the Softmind Softwaretm logo, and a small compartment clip on the back. Fiddling with the clip causes the codex to open up effectively splitting in half. As the bottom half swings idly on a pair tiny hinges, a folded paper tumbles out. It is an incomprehensible document of service agreements and legalese.
1 legalese document added to your inventory
Seeing the compartment open, you can see that there is barely any room left in the device for circuitry or anything else. The whole set up seems to exist for no other reason than for something the speaker can attach to.

Quote:> Look outside for the source of the sound.
Looking out the front and side windows shows no immediate signs of life close by. The trees are thick enough to prevent you from seeing anything too far away. Looking behind you out the rear window shows you immediately what the cause of both the truck's movement and that ungodly noise. In the bed of the truck is a massive, writhing pile of snakes.
