Reminders and world-building
- “The Zone map has a square grid. Every square is called a sector, and is roughly one mile wide.” (p.97)
- All of the People are roughly in the range of 18-30 years old. (As far as they know, since there’s no real reckoning of years.)
- The Ark’s home sector is the area where a bunch of the People, even non-Stalkers, have explored.
- The immediate area around the Ark had a lot of buildings. Most of them are severely dilapidated or deteriorated into ruins, barely recognisable as buildings.
- There are about 8 other dog handlers in the Ark
- Dogs: “If there’s something the Ark is not in short supply of, it’s wild mutts.” (p.34)
- Zone Cook: Before Octavia, there were no Zone Cooks in the Ark.
