Ep7: Duna Din and the Maven Temple
Once a mighty, cruel and immensely-powerful empire, Duna Din is now a vast land of dust and sand, ravaged by the sweltering sun and whipped by the whirlwinds that skip through its abandoned villages. Great domes and temples reach up, pocked and scarred from its shifting dunes.
Moonkarta is recovering well from Zara and Zafiya’s attack. Defenses are bolstered, the damage is fixed and morale is rising. New trade routes have been established, allowing supplies into the town.
Splott, Doggy, Jansey, Colin, Gorel, Sassy Lighthouse Keeper and the Brassman are arriving at the once-mighty Hakko Hin port of Duna Din. They arrive at a vast pirate ship graveyard; a legacy from the great Lexx Wars. Once on land they encounter a strange group of wandering Lexx who pass through the deserted streets searching for lost souls.
They continue on, walking for a day through the desert in search of the Maven Temple. Here they must consult with the Maven to find out the next step in their journey. They discover that they can only activate the Maven's wisdom with something they were given at the very start.
The Maven gives them a series of glimpses into a dark and worrying future. She sends the group to Traxxin in Staxxis; the land of the great astronomers to prepare for what is to come.
On leaving the temple our friends are attacked by two giant bat-like creatures.
