As you might imagine, Ender and the Salvador angels are spitting mad. Complaints have been filed, but the damage is done.
It appears to have been a lumber company’s machinery. The exact spot is between Portazgo and La Manjoya. Portazgo is...
Thanks for all that invaluable information, islandwalker. And thanks for your time in putting it all together.
