And a chairman that makes children

Day 13
by Octavia

My dearest Notebook,

We set up camp in a large building next to the tower. Lincoln and his crew went hunting, and we stayed behind to keep an eye on the tower. First we watched from a higher floor so that we could look over the wall.

There were women walking around ordering the men around. The men worked in the cropland and walked around with buckets of water, which were filled through a pipe on the side of the building via a continuous stream of water. It was clear that the woman were in charge...

Then we moved to a spot close to the gate and waited... After a while, 3 women came out of the gate and headed North. Tesla and Finn followed them without being seen. Rianna, me and Bolt stayed watching the gate. It only took a moment before Bolt left us to search (s)crap.

Later that afternoon we heard a noise that got louder and louder. After a few minutes we saw a large vehicle approaching at a running speed. It looked the same as the ones we had seen a few days ago in J-19, and it stopped in front of the gate.

There were 9 women inside, but no sign of the Pure-Ones. There was something strange going on with one of the women, she had a very big belly, even though she was not fat... Was that a mutation? Or the Rot? Rianna went to a higher floor to look behind the wall. She saw the vehicle go down a ramp and disappear into the building.

After another long wait we saw 2 of the 3 women return. One of them had a large package in the shape of a small person on her shoulders. Fortunately too small to be Finn or Tesla!

At the end of the day, after Lincoln and his crew returned, Finn arrived. Where was Tesla!?! Finn explained that she was in a building nearby because they had captured a woman named Carla. Finn recommended that our women go there to question her further, as she did not listen well to men. So Rianna and I went to them.

Tesla had blindfolded and gagged Carla. We took her to a place a little further from the tower and questioned her. We learned a lot from her:

• There are about 150 people living in the Tower.
• There is a boss called the Chairman, he is a man?!
• He is the boss because he can make children!
• We learned how they make children, and apparently the very big belly is a child growing inside that woman!
• They see the Pure-Ones as Zone-Ghouls.
• They eat Zone-Ghouls.
• Men are called Givers, and are treated like slaves.
• If we want to try to free the Pure-Ones, we need to talk to the Chairman.
• They don't have the Rot inside, and when we go in we will have to wash ourselves.
• The wall and guns are just to protect them against Zone-Ghouls, of which they have a lot.
• We are the first other people they encounter.
• She thinks it's safe for us and our men to enter the Tower.

After the questioning, as we walked back to our camp, Rianna and Tesla heard the sound of a seagull!

Tesla recognized it as a signal from our stalkers, and she also made a seagull sound. Then Jo-Ann emerged from the darkness! What was she doing out here? She told us she had an important message for us from Elona, who send out multiple stalkers in search for Lincoln. The message was:

"The Elder is dying, and when he's dead Harper will take over. Please terugn quickly!"

That was not good! And I'm sure Lincoln will not let that happen! But then we should be at the ark to stop it! And is Ruby safe??? We should go back as soon as possible, she could be in danger!!

But going back during the night through the Zone would be a death-sentence. So we have to wait till morning... At least we could maybe spend the night in the Tower, and see if we can get the Pure-Ones free?
