+# Numenera notes 9-8-24
+
+- The group continues to chat about Logan's failure throughout the night. Suddenly, Jessy begins to choke on food. Rynex, one of her team members, saves Jessy from choking via Heimleich. 
+- The Boa unit returns and are badly injured, calling for any medical members to come help. Tubora goes to help. 
+- The night begins to end. Ozzie and Logan discuss potentially seducing Jessy so they can stay with her and keep an eye on her. Logan succeeds in rubbing a gel on her to boost intoxication, and she takes a liking to him.
+- Logan "entertains" Jessy for 4 hours! 
+- She walks out in the morning to join her group and suddenly is in pain. She stops outside and says "Rynex, one of my hearts just stopped. We need to get that checked out." 
+- After a week, we head down to the lab to retrieve the eyes. Logan and Tubora's eyes are no longer human looking, though. Logan's are literally "eagle eyes" and Tubora's are cat eyes. 
+- We head to the stable master and talk to him. We ask to rest the hognoses and he says we have Jessica, which looks like a box fan stage coach. It isn't as fast as the hognoses, but it has plenty of room. It must be driven slowly and calmly, no drifting or racing. No quick getaways. He takes Ozzie out and teaches him how to drive it. 
+- The coach has a large cover on the back. It is practically a U-Haul and does well over difficult terrain, though slow. 
+- We ride out and Logan is playing his new instrument on the coach like Mad Max. 
+- Before we leave, we show Rahul where pyramid is located and tell him about the valves and summoning tech machine. We are paid 50 shins. 
+- Ozzie is skilled in driving Jessica.
+- "What are you trying to train the butt monster to do?" Adam to DanA on training his monster pal. Ozzie trains it to first not immediately attack him. 
+- We see a 10-story tower in the middle of a town. We pass fields that have been farmed and are cultivated - wheat and beans. Out of the tower, there is a cylindar of 10 ft that rises infinitely into the sky. Seems like the beanstalk is a farming community that also serves as a landmark. Maybe a 1,000 people in the town. 
+- Moss grows on the floating stones. It can be harvested and the town members say that it will help anything grow. 
+- We enter the first level and are alone. There is a mythos that there is a giant at the top of the tower who will one day come down and attack. 
+- All jack classes, like Ozzie, are named after Jack from Jack and the Beanstalk. 
+
+- From the DM: 
+		- And then Jack climbed the Beanstalk. He climbed and climbed and climbed. He climbed so very high that when he stopped climbing, he found himself in the clouds. He stood so high, in fact, that Jack had climbed all the way to a castle built by giants.
+		- Someday, the wise folks say, the giant will return, looking for his stolen goods. Looking to get revenge. Looking for Jack. But on that day, Jack will be long gone, his days long since done. But his grandson or granddaughter, or perhaps their grandson or granddaughter, might just be on hand to trick the giant again and save the land from his terrible wrath. Let’s all hope so. For the land to be safe, we need not a hero, but a Jack.
+- Tadej gives Ozzie 20 shins to go buy a bag of beans. Ozzie tries to remember the lore of the Jack and Beanstalk story and he asks around until he finds an old decendant of the original Jack. 
+- He succeeds in remembering the lore and persuades her to bring out the items of her great great grandfather. 
+- She brings out a bag with old rock-like items for Ozzie. Logan scans them and sees they are organic items. Claim is they were stolen from the giant. She gives the item to Ozzie after talking to him about the original Jack. 
+- We head back to the tower.
