I can’t do it.
I don’t mean leave the bunker for food, I have some now. I mean try to find
other - for lack of better term - survivors.
When I leave the bunker, the research stops. I leave all the datapads and journals
here. I can’t risk losing any of them and they are safely locked here.
But out there, all I can focus on is survival. Get food, keep safe, stay
hidden, avoid the raiders at all cost and the staring ones even more so.
Also, the local food stores are now stripped bare. The pickings were slim at
best before, but now everything is gone. So now I have to travel further to
find food, make the journey back to the bunker to continue my work and if I
manage to do that, by the time my food runs low, no doubt raiders and starving
ones and who knows what else will have picked all those stores and houses
clean, if they haven’t already and I need to look further.
This is starting to look hopeless. How can I find survivors when I can barely
keep myself alive? How am I going to find food when I’ve seen whole gangs
camped out in buildings until the supplies are gone and then just move on?
I need a new safe house. I haven’t seen anywhere round here that is safe but
maybe further in the city I can get in somewhere. I don’t even know if there is
anywhere safe to hide in the city. Probably not. It’s probably 10 times worse
than here. And if I do find somewhere, I need to move all the research there as
well.
I need a lot of luck.
Perhaps I should look up how to ask those all seeing deities of Alison's
time to help make this work.
Couldn’t hurt right?
