They leave Stripshire arguing over who should have what loot. A wolf-zombie is the road stops the cart. Osgoth slays it easily and then goes after Ned, who runs screaming from the cart after being attacked by Hydrix. She has decided that the horses can be controlled by the mask. It seems that keeping the cart moving is more difficult than she imagined and they hit a rock in the road that throws them about and damages the cart. While deciding what to do they are attacked by zombie-rodents and being weakened by their jolts in the cart both Hydrix and Osgoth fall unconscious. Morlaf saves the day
They eventually get to Borderdale and take a week off while Hydrix reads the Manual of Quick Action. Osgoth masturbates in his room the whole time. Ulalume tries it on with Olga and is almost successful. Morlaf arranges with Jedadiah to have the cart fixed and goes into the forest with him to select a good piece of wood. There they are attacked by a zombie-lynx but Jedadiah hacks it apart with no great effort.
With a new axel they go south to Shadton and eat at the Dukes Head…
