Our Land of Azurth 5e game continued last night with the party prepared to confront the chicken mutant who was in the reactor room of the Gander chicken plant. They were uncertain what these strange suits were they found or the "radiometers" so they went back to consult the computer. It explained, but the explanations weren't of much help. It did elucidate why their keycards could open the door: you had to have a priority keycard of some color.
Waylon went back and looted the bodies of chicken mutants they had killed to find a keycard. With a stack, they were able to find one that worked and entered the reactor room.
The reactor room was really loud, so they were able to get the jump on the mutant. Even impaired in their movements in the bulk radiation suits, they made short work of him. It turned out to be a good thing, too, as he was apparently trying to cause a meltdown, according to the computer.
The party let the only surviving chicken mutant leave with his life and some money. He didn't seem happy, but he did it. Then, they negotiated a deal for the citizenry of Falgo which got them jobs in the factory in exchange for food. How the simple folk of Falgo were going to adapt to working in a mechanized factory the party left to the people and the computer to figure out.
With that good deed behind them, they were once again on the road to the Virid Country.

That worked out better than my first playthrough did way back when. As in, it wasn't a TPK. Think that might have been my very first, although there were a few earlier D&D games where a few of the PCs "survived" only because their NPC lackeys and/or other adventurers managed to get them de-petrified and/or raised/reincarnated after the dust settled. Long after, in one case - I had three PCs wake up in a museum/university 2000 years later when the staffers brought them back to question about the past.
