Home sweet home! Josh couldn't help smile as they finally reached D-23: this was a new beginning.

They landed at the very edge of the forest with the crew members afraid to wake the sloths up. The few guards currently on-site were sighing in relief. From now on, watching the area would be Josh's problem.
"Alright, follow closely and don't touch anything," Josh ordered them. They all nodded solemnly as if their life depended on it, which it kind of did.
They made for a strange procession. Anywhere else, 300 Climbers would have been very confident. As long as it wasn't a war, they'd be fine, right?
In this place, they had no assurance whatsoever. They followed Josh as if small ducklings trailing behind their mother.
