“What exactly are we doing?”
“For now, just door to door. I’m going to mark the places you should visit, where there are families or groups of people.
Ahh, giving out the supplies you promised? Seems reasonable to expect problems then. Not everyone is going to be on board with the Bug Queen’s reign, and then there’s those who would try to grab more supplies than they’re supposed to get.
I need the info I can’t get with my bugs. Who are the people in my territory? What do they need: Maybe medical care, clothes, more food, maybe someone’s giving them trouble? You find out, take notes, then pass that information to me.”
Oh, okay. Not quite there yet – just recon for now. The first issue I mentioned still holds true, though.
“That’s it?”
“For now. I’m going to ask you guys to travel as a pair, obviously. You’ll be safer and there’s a better chance you’ll be able to signal me with the necklace if something goes wrong. Not that you should need the cube, but I prefer having some redundancy.”
Makes sense. One of them could be incapacitated before she gets a chance to crush the cube, in which case it’s the other one’s turn.
The pair nodded. Sierra bent over to pull on the rain boots I’d provided her. Charlotte was already wearing hers.
Taylor gave them the booties.
