> There are shields, both obviously high-tech megadamage and primitive.

> To Bongo's skilled eye, this enormous collection looks like it spans not

> hit a wall that feels, in his astral form, as if he's hit a physical
> barrier.  He feels a wrenching sensation that continues until he moves away

[Bongo]
*Let's make sure to clean up our mess and make nice,* Bongo sends to Lady 
Frost. *I want to be able to come back and shop some more here.*

OOC: I'm singling out Frost here mainly because he's already sent a TP and 
IIRC the 'link' lasts a couple minutes per level so I'm trying to conserve ISP 
by sending to her as long as the duration lasts.

Bongo shakes his hands as he pulls away from the door.   Whatever is there 
would have to wait for another time.   He takes one last quick look around the 
establishment before using his remaining time in astral form to look for Griz 
himself (following the scent trail to the gates and then searching as quickly 
as possible).
