Narrative

I.E. was splashed in the eye with mud and debris when a mantrip ran over a belt frame. The front tire kicked up a top frame that was laying in a waterhole. The frame bounced off of the doors on the mantrip and caused the I.E. to dodge it coming toward them. The hardhat and safety glasses were knocked off in the motion and mud got into the eye.
