Before we go to the crab quarters we peek around the corner at the furnace



There's many nobs and switches

It may not be the best idea, but when I see dials, I want to turn things to eleven.

there will be a time for messing with stuff, but now is perhaps not that time - I'd say let's peep the crab quarters before touching the controls

what's the thing twisting through the middle of the map? is that the conveyor belt we rode in on? are the areas marked A, B, C, D workstations or something?

Unfortunately there's no 11 marked, but here's a closeup



That twisting thing is the conveyor belt - yep those are lettered work stations

Ahh yes the ole scuttle-n-poke maneuver, a classic of crab tactics.

I wonder what manner of work the salves are doing down here. Clearly they needed a fair amount of crabhours, a furnace, and a king's ransom in twig stock. A whole lot of labor, tech, and capital for ...what end?

These boards seem to be meant to hold back something larger than a crab, we could easily fit underneath the gap, or tear it apart

Ask me about that time I told people mixing bleach and vinegar is okay
I just wanted to let you know I've been avidly following since page one I've yet to make any suggestions but that's just because I'm drunk half the time.
Maybe I'll change my mind soon, keep up the good work.

scuttle through. maybe the boards are holding back something on the other side, we don't want to endanger duckson or duckegg.

"greetings fellow crablings! I'm here on a quest for tools to help my crab friends in the outside world, but also to investigate and see if I can be of any help to the crabs here. tell me about yourselves! what is this place, what are you doing here, and are you in need of any assistance?"

Your brokebrain sin is absolved...go and shitpost no more!

"For twelve years, you have been asking: Who is Ulysses C. Crab? This is Ulysses Crab speaking. I am the crab who loves his life. I am the crab who does not sacrifice his love or his values. I am the crab who has deprived you of victims and thus has destroyed your world, and if you wish to know why you are perishing—you who dread knowledge—I am the crab who will now tell you.

"You have heard it said that this is an age of moral crisis. You have said it yourself, half in fear, half in hope that the words had no meaning. You have cried that crabkind's sins are destroying the world and you have cursed crab nature for its unwillingness to practice the virtues you demanded. Since virtue, to you, consists of sacrifice, you have demanded more sacrifices at every successive disaster. In the name of a return to morality, you have sacrificed all those evils which you held as the cause of your plight. You have sacrificed justice to mercy. You have sacrificed independence to unity. You have sacrificed reason to faith. You have sacrificed wealth to need. You have sacrificed self-esteem to self-denial. You have sacrificed happiness to duty."

nice. We are the old workers for this zone, but no one has come down here for a long time. Most of us were born in duck captivity and only know the cave system. We dream of escaping this place but there are no routes out that we can find. How did you manage to get down here?

(we tell this small crab our story of how we got down here)

Wait, the conveyor belt was moving? Only the black duck was able to start it. That's not good. Hey if you're willing to give us that ezood we'd really appreciate it. We're trying to blow a hole to the surface to get out using the furnace.

I'd say fork over the ezood.

Also just the words "Crab Adventure" make me happy now.

Like if someone on the streets came up to me and said "Wanna go on a Crab Adventure?" I'd be like "Heck yeah!"

Then I would probably end up with an STD :(

I think we should insist on holding the ezood ourselves but agree to use it to help their plan

Excellent news. Uh yes we are pretty small and it seems easier for you to carry it with that uh... other stuff you're carrying. Just a moment let me gather the rest of the crabs.

pubic lice are no laughing matter and they tarnish the good names of hard working crabs everywhere.

which reminds me: is there any chance of us getting laid on this crab adventure?

Lead the crabs to freedom. We've got the crabpower and the sticks, all we need is the trash crabs' science to build an army capable of overthrowing the duck menace.

from time to time the ducks will send one of their smallest duckling assassins through our tunnel network. It's nothing to be alarmed about
