      The
      Cadre
     
    
   
   
    
     
      Above:
      Tired
      from
      their
      journey,
     
     
      the
      explorers
      stop
      for
      a
      sandwich
     
     
      and
      some
      7-Up.
      They
      are
      happy
     
     
      to
      have
      found
      conclusive
      evi-
     
     
      dence
      of
      the
      Mole
      People,
      but
     
     
      they
      are
      saddened
      by:
      having
      not
     
     
      found
      a
      one
      to
      photograph.
     
     
      Perhaps
      it
      is
      for
      the
      best,
      for
      the
     
     
      surely
      would
      be
      torn
      to
      pieces.
     
    

    
     
      Left:
      The
      explorers
      continue
      to
     
     
      make
      a
      full
      circle
      tour
      of
      the
      tun-
     
     
      nels,
      but
      they
      find
      no
      more
      evi-
     
     
      dence
      of
      the
      Mole
      People.
      They
     
     
      decide
      to
      return
      to
      the
      surface.
     
    

    
     
      Right:
      Agent
      S
      is
      the
      last
      to
     
     
      emerge
      from
      the
      Mole
      People’s
     
     
      domain.
      He
      is
      happy
      be
      alive.
