The fish is starting to smell more on the fishy side, but not so much that it smells like it's going bad. The inside of it has a bit more of a powerful scent, though. Nothing unusual happens when it's cut open - just regular-looking fish innards in there. The metal stake is roughly two feet long.

Day 001
Hour 6: III.R.26 -> III.Q.25

The drone is moving very fast - much faster than a human could run, even at a sprint - but it's a lot easier to keep sight of it in the thinner forest lining the coast. Unfortunately, this goes both ways. After only fifteen minutes or so of tracking, the drone suddenly stops, hovering in place for a moment, before the metal bars on its sides crackle to life with visible pulses of electricity and it flies directly towards Rust. Based on how quickly it was moving earlier, even though it's several kilometers down the beach, it will catch up to him in a matter of minutes.
