The Journal of Professor Connelly
\nShan Fan, 1887<\/p>\n

The good Captain Pennington-Smythe has hired a sturdy group of travelling companions. I am well pleased. My trip from Virginia City into the Maze went better than expected. I was able to get a first-hand view of the elusive chinensis<\/em> dinopis<\/em> or \u201cChinese Ogre\u201d. A fearsome creature. I was even able to do some quick sketches before I was forced to draw my trusty revolver. Thanks to the efforts of my travelling companions, I was not hurt.<\/p>\n

My sighting opportunity came during an attack on the train upon which I was travelling. I had only witnessed an auto-gyro once previously, and then only during a Morgan county fair exhibition given by my esteemed colleague, Prof. Vanderkook. During the attack, two of these contraption were used quite effectively. I\u2019m quite impressed the train could travel afterwards, as the damage to the cars was extensive.<\/p>\n

Several of my travelling companions were severely wounded during the attack. I was quite concerned that I may have to contact the captain and request replacements. It turned out that my fears were unfounded. The rather strange looking woman who is accompanying me turned out to be a skilled healer. I must congratulate the captain on his wise choice.<\/p>\n

It was later revealed that the attack appears to have come from the forces of the Warlord Kang. Why he chose this train is a mystery, although I did note extra guards were apparent in the passenger car. I am curious just what they were guarding.<\/p>\n

The late arrival into Shan Fan was uneventful. We eventually found the Heavenly Inn. I must now lay down my pen and get some rest. Tomorrow will be a busy day of seeing the sights and sounds of Shan Fan!<\/p>\n
