Geeble breathed in the cool morning air as he stretched his arms and let out a big refreshing yawn. It was a beautyful day. From the top of this tree he could see the clearest blue sky ever.

Geeble had finally gotten some good sleep, but he knew it would be a while before he would get the chance again. Evil was spreading faster than he'd expected and he had to keep moving. Geeble didn't want to suffer the same fate as poor Raisin. It was hard for him to grieve, because he still couldn't believe it actually happened. It was just so hard for Geeble to comprehend.
"Well, at least Raisin can personally vist sights beyond his cave without the help of the ratz," Geeble said as he began to climb out of the tree.

Then it struck Geeble very strange that the ratz weren't around. He looked down at the ground and saw not one rat or even his own Scrab. He jumped onto the ground and looked around and got the strange feeling of being all alone. Geeble was surrounded by dead silence and felt frozen in his tracks. Then he saw something. A dark figure, but Geeble couldn't focus on whatever it was. It seemed to draw everything into its presence as it moved forward to Geeble. Then, with a flash of light, Geeble stretched forth his hand and called upon the power of Ratz. The earth suddenly swallowed the dark figure and Geeble knew now was his chance to escape. It would be back......he knew it.

After many hours of traveling, Geeble made it to a small village. He met a traveler headed for the capitol and told him to give word to Blarg, Ronan and the others about what had happened......and to let them know Geeble was headed for Mosaic Lines. Geeble needed to go deep into Mosaic Lines. Deep underground, shaman muds live there in secret. Geeble needed to spend time in meditation to restore his power.......and summon more. It would take time, but it was essential he did this now.
