You watch Macy and Langdon disappearing westwards towards the town of Mohawk, which nestles at the northern edge of the Mohawk Mountains. Then, when their Trans-sol is little more than a speck on the horizon, you turn to Rickenbacker and say: ‘S’pose we’d better start searching for breakfast. Those two blocks over there look like they might be worth an hour’s search each. What d’ya say?’

Rickenbacker looks across the dust-blown precinct at the two buildings you have in mind: a Dixie supermart and a Worldfoods wholesale warehouse. ‘I leave the choice t’ you,’ he replies, unenthusiastically.

If you wish to search the Dixie supermart, turn to 31.

If you decide to search the Worldfoods warehouse, turn to 169.
