Time for an update from me. I had an exciting day today! First some backstory, since I'm didn't tell you this yet. The Ark's water basin got contaminated :( I'm not sure if it's the Rot or not, but the water is green/blue, which is not good. 14 days ago [[Lincoln]] decided it was time to do something about it. He send [[Ruby]], [[Ava]], [[Finley]] and [[Felix]] out in search of the Pure Plant. The stories are that it has an endless supply of clean water!

So yeah, I miss seeing [[Ruby]], and the worst thing is, they are still not back! They should be back now for sure. I'm worried... :(

Apparently I'm not the only one. This morning Lincoln asked me to join a group that goes looking for them. It includes [[Tesla]]! The others are [[Rianna]], [[Bolt]], [[Garrett]] and [[Finn|Flux]] (and you get [[Finn]] for free).  


Well, I didn't say no, so here I am in the middle of the Zone! We did see some awesome things today, but no sign of [[Ruby]]. Let me explain what we saw by this map on which I'm keeping track of everything. K-16 is the sector where the Ark is. First we went to sector J-17, which is to the North-West.

[[Tesla]] wanted to go into the spire to get a good view of the surroundings, which I thought weas a great idea! It would really help us find the safest paths through the Zone. The others joined her except [[Flux|Finn]] and [[Garrett]]. [[Bolt]] tried to join them also but didn't manage to climb the rubble. So he started to gather scraps around here. He found a weird yellow metal dish and some mechanic that could move when you turned a small iron key. So nothing interesting.

A few minutes later that I found a huge notebook! It had a drawings of the half-naked man etched on the outside. Was he the boss in the sky? But why on a cross? It didn't make sense at all. On the inside there were letters I recognized, but the words didn't make sense. Let me show you what it started with: "In principio creavit Deus caelum et terram". Makes no sense, right? Lets bring it to the vault, maybe others can use it.

And non of the buried, like in the stories.

Dear Notebook,

Time for an update from me. I had an exciting day today! First some backstory, since I'm didn't tell you this yet. The Ark's water basin got contaminated :( I'm not sure if it's the Rot or not, but the water is green, which is not good.

14 days ago Lincoln decided it was time to do something about it. He send Ruby, Ava, Finley and Felix out in search of the Pure Plant. The stories are that it has an endless supply of clean water!!!

So yeah, I miss seeing Ruby, and the worst thing is, they are still not back! They should be back now for sure. I'm worried...

Apparently I am not the only one. This morning Lincoln asked me to join this group he is leading that goes looking for them. It includes Tesla! The others are Rianna, Bolt, Garrett, Flux and Finn.

Well, I didn't say no, so here I am in the middle of the Zone! We did see some awesome things today, but no sign of Ruby. Let me explain what we saw by using this map. K-16 is the sector where the Ark is. First we went to sector J-17, which is to the North-West.

Sector J-17:
Tesla quickly found a path through this sector, she even found some grub! It looked Rot-contaminated but I'll have a better look at it later. Maybe we can make it work.
In the middle of the sector there was a big stone building with a huge pointy spire! Inside there were rotten wooden benches and a lot of rubble. Behind a big table there was a cross with a half-naked Ancient on it. Let me draw it:

I heard tales about places like this. A place where the Ancients talked to their boss in the sky!

Tesla wanted to go into the spire to get a good view of the surroundings, which I thought was a great idea! It would really help us find the safest paths through the Zone. The others joined her except me, Flux and Garrett. Bolt tried to join them, but didn't manage to climb up there. He started to gather scrap on the base floor instead. He found a weird yellow metal dish and some mechanic that could move when you turned a small iron key. So nothing useful interesting.

A few minutes later I found a huge notebook! It had drawings of the half-naked man etched on the outside. Was he the boss in the sky? But why on a cross? It didn't make sense at all. On the inside there were letters I recognized, but they were not forming words. Let me show you what was in there: "In principio creavit Deus caelum et terram". Makes no sense, right? Lets bring it to the vault, maybe others can use it.
After waiting a bit the rest of the group finally came down. Tesla shared what she saw in the surrounding sectors. I-17 had a another big building with a cross on it. I-18 had an open area with a fence around it. In the middle there was a structure from metal tubes connected with chains and ladders. I-16 had a lot of huge bushes with some paths in between, but it was hard to see if that area was safe. We decided to go to I-17 in the North!

Sector I-17:
The building which Tesla saw looked different compared to the spire. The cross was reddish and had another shape, like this:

Inside it was crazy! There were so many skeletons! A lot of rooms, and in them beds with more skeletons! Skeletons in the hallways, skeletons everywhere! When looking closer to one it became clear that these were skeletons from ancients. I even saw some very small ones, not much longer then my arm! What happened here? They all died? And none of them were buried like in the stories?

A bit further we noticed a metal door which was slightly ajar. There was a weird symbol painted on it ->

A terrible smell came from the room, and some barrels in there were leaking a black-green liquid on the floor. There was a weird yellow suit on a metal standard. This place smelled and looked Rot-contaminated!
Against my warnings Rianna and Bolt entered the room and quickly grabbed the yellow suit. They came out coughing. The air in there hurt their breathing! But Bolt was thinking that the suit could provide protection against the Rot and had no regrets going in there.

It was starting to get dark outside, so we looked for a place to spend the night. We found a room on the 4th floor which looked safe and is easy to guard. We agreed on the following watch order:

  1. Tesla
  2. Bolt
  3. Rianna
  4. Flux (and Finn)
  5. Lincoln
  6. Garrett
  7. Me!

I'm going to bed now, rest is important! Let's hope we find Ruby and the others quickly and alive. Goodnight sweet Notebook!
