The Starting Grid

Donut's Banquet Fit for a Princess yields a letter from Mees Koning 2, a scarred half-orc mage who thanks her for a minute of kindness at the Faction Wars southern border and bequeaths the Big-Ass Magnet spell. Carl finds Dong Quixote in the guild pet stables introducing Porky to Gonk and Simoom, and dumps frozen chicken patties for Sir Rendlegore and Penelope. Party chat brings a curt brush-off from Warlord Akuma, word that Zhang's last teammate has been disqualified, and Mordecai's report that the cactus is holding steady — which rattles Donut, because his cryptic proclamation has now come round twice. At the line Carl slots the truck in near the Lady Dominators, Osvaldo, Team Free Love and a motionless Dwight, with Dong, Porky and a carsick Grigori strapped into the new rear seats, while Louis, Imani C, Zhang, Bodi and Florin draw other tracks. Dr. Metcalf, sulking that the Dominators' GPS unit Janice is now fully upgraded, reads out the course: no safe path from receiving bay to shipping, neighborhood bosses in the middle, and a room whose entire floor is molten metal.
