Touring Joe and
The Far Gate


This page, and those to follow, document the adventure of Touring Joe as he visited Vermont as part of his extended '99 Summer Tour. Accompanying Joe are Babs Dahl, recently of the Pink Aisle, and Sgt Bytit, complete with his Sunny Smile. Joe's host in Vermont was ScottE, HoloSuite@yahoo.com. 

Our cyber hopping trio of travelers is on the move again. After straightening out the errant AI and evicting the resident Troll on the deep space vessel, TJ and his companions find themselves in an underground government research facility. There's danger in the air here. It's mixed with an equal part of Troll stench.

TJ:

Well, we made it here, wherever here is.
I see we've managed to whistle up a little help this time.

The FarGate Team
TALC:

I am Talc, defender of the FarGate. The FarGate is a technological portal permitting travel to other worlds. An alien oppressor, Havmor, has come through the gate seeking the one you call Troll. Havmor is known to your world as the ancient goddess of excess and greed. She is reputed to have great power over all men. She seeks the Troll as an ally in her quest to dominate the people of Earth.

Well we can't have that, now can we.
Talc and Babs, you go catch up with the visiting greedy goddess. Bytit and I will head off the Troll at the FarGate.

BABS:

I was hoping you were going to say that. Come on, big guy. You're with me.

BYTIT:

I've got a little business to attend to, TJ.
You go ahead and I'll catch up.


Havmor, I cannot allow you to join forces with the Troll.

HAVMOR:

Talk to the hand, tall, dark, and rippling.
My, what a big staff you have.

Talc Confronts the Goddess Havmor

I am....
powerless before your charms.

No man can resist me when I flash my Orb.

Havmor Flashes Her Orb

Eat boot, you leather clad harlet.
Your flashing orb doesn't do a thing for me.

You barbaric blonde! You've broken the Orb!!

Babs Leaves Her Mark

You fools! You don't realize what you've done. We only know how to use the Orbs. The secrets of their construction are lost to time.

It is unwise to rely upon technology that you do not understand.
It ultimately makes you weak.

A Goddess Subdued

Tell me, Talc, where did you get that nickname?

It is because I use the powder to get my boots on and off.

OOOOh. Those ARE big boots.
Maybe later I can show you a little trick I know using lubricants.

Guard Havmor while I assist with the Troll. If it makes it through the FarGate, nobody will be able to stop it.


Meanwhile, the Troll has reached the FarGate and Prepares to flee.

A Troll at the Gate
Standing at the Brink

Leaving so soon?
Why don't you stay and we'll have a little talk? How do you feel about arm wrestling?

Battle at the Gate

TJ, I will shut down the portal. Stay clear of the event horizon or you will be damaged. Anything bridging the horizon when it collapses is split between the two worlds.

Talc at the Controls

Looks like he's fallen and can't get up.
Guess that's what you get for having a FarGate for a barber.
So sad. Too Bad.

Topless Troll





Check out these boots. I just love the feel of leather. She kept them nice and warm for me.

Havmor may have been a goddess, but the last time I saw her Talc had her mopping up Troll brains from the gate ramp.

Man, I went to find the restroom and I missed all the excitement.

Ready to Move On

I've gotten through to the Lab. T & A say we're good to go. Let's try and stay together this time. Think good thoughts. It affects how we start the mission. The access code for the next leap is CYBORG.
