The boat sailed out of the small harbour town in the north portion of Andonia. Aboard were fifteen men besides the crew. They were the advance group to establish the base camp, before the other twenty would arrive. Einar Lokisson led them. They checked their equipment to ensure it would stay functioning. The boat arrived in bustling Somal port, and the fifteen men disembarked. They moved out and headed into the wilderness, setting up the base camp in an area just about in central Somal. Then they unpacked the trowels and set to looking for artifacts. The SSCA had arrived.
