a small group of outsiders, decided to sabotage the hunt.
Despite fangs and venom, they want to make pets, out
of baby Dorfle-Schnitz. Money is more important than the safety
of forest communities. Before the hunt could begin, a big
barrel of homemade wine was consumed to bolster fearlessness and
put everyone in a happy mood, because the Dorfle-Schnitz loves
drunkards. Emboldened, everyone took their poison dart guns, and hid
among the trees and waited, and waited, and then suddenly
a singing drunken moonshiner appeared out of nowhere, the hunters
decided to go home and sleep it off until tomorrow.
The sun was breaking through the fog as I set
the timer. I wanted a pond, but digging is hard
when there are so many bones. I only had time
to dig a tiny puddle when the alarm rang, so
I figured I'd collect the bones to prove
my theory. The landslide of 1902 covered a whole herd
of lemmings. My archaeological dig was interrupted by heavy rain,
but Mom called me in for dinner before I could
think. When I returned, they were gone. My greedy neighbour
had stolen the entire collection! All my work building those things
was wasted. How can I get funding for real research,
when trespassing neighbours keep … wait! What’s that in the sky?!
It was circling vultures. They were circling something coming towards
Last week's roadkill. Aha! Another source of bones! I might
kill two birds with one stone. I reached for my
shovel again and headed for the street. The vultures wouldn't
stop circling. They were after me. The smell of carion

I suspect you're right Dale, I've inserted a "Round Two C" above and will delay the Round 5 starter sentence until an appropriate time. I will also start a thread in the Tinkering Forum, because your message deserves consideration (and would *certainly* have helped me when I was new.) https://permies.com/t/124283/page-notification-post-page
