Shoji assembles on his journey. (SJ-48)

Shoji heads through the United Cities gathering a few more Hiver Drones before heading west to World's End. After looking through their inventories for useful items, they head south and pass by the godlands, Shoji on a whim looking to see if any other of the Deadhivers could possibly be saved, and delighted to find they could be brought back from the brink of sanity, now seeking to assemble a large body of DeadHivers to bring into the Eastern Hive.
