Lotam was a barren and empty wasteland of sopored imps and empty faygo bottles. Not that Eridan expected anything different, but the absence of Gamzee was unnerving to say the least. Scouting and mapping the entirety of the battlefield had grown tiresome in the days and weeks leading up his final decision to insert himself in the Scooby Doo investigation, but it did improve his charting and navigation skills exponentially. Even though they were already impeccable, finding the damn clown was proving strangely difficult.
Fluttering over to a patch of stained dirt, he knelt down to inspect how recent the spillage had occurred. He immediately noticed several patches of Blueberry Flavored Faygo stains splattered across the ground. Oddly enough, they seem to form a trail leading up to damaged tent over to his right.
As he followed the path, a damning thought came to mind as he suddenly remembered -
