<text>DMTD is asking "do you know what the objects were?" Which do you think are valuable and which are junk? If you don't know, we can discuss at the end of the mission. But if you know which is the most valuable and can remember where you found the bits, it could be a clue as to where to start in the next activity: Geophys.</text>
<text>Think of this as underground radar which can tell you where buildings existed. As you move around the play area, any underground walls will show up as white lines. If you find any of these, see if you can follow them and reveal a complete building. Off you go! and DMTD's friend Hedgehog will give you a thumbs up and play the found sound if something really significant is noticed.</text>
