Only cares about himself
To the tower it was! I spit out all my rot, and after Carla let them know it was her, the vehicle-door went open. Inside we first were washed roughly. I guess they couldn't notice I already got all Rot out of me.
Next we were offered food. I told them that I would eat my own food, since they ate Zone-Ghouls and Pure-Ones here... Who would be so crazy to eat that. Well, it turned out to be everyone besides me!! Even Telsa! I already got sick by the idea of it... so kept to my grub. Even after my warning that they could be eating Pure-Ones the others didn't care...
Time for some distraction. While Carla would talk to the chairman, we were allowed to walk around everywhere except the basement and the penthouse, which apparently was the top floor.
There were strange lights everywhere, without a flame! Must've been artifacts from the ancient ones, something Bolt might be interested in. I started looking for a chronicler. Searching answers to question like: "What was their history?", "What did they know about the ancient ones?" and "Did they learned anything about the Rot?".
But it turned out that they hadn't written down much, and I was pointed to Nafta. After I got her attention she turned out to more a Gearhead then a Chronicler. I didn't learn much from her. And when I asked about the basement it looked like she was afraid to tell about that... like they had something to hide. She did stay friendly, and was very interested in our Ark.What was going on here?! That man must've been really desperate! After that she ordered some other man to bring the body to the basement... What would they do with it, also eat it?
Carla then gathered us and brought us to a wooden platform in the building. There was a long rope attached to the top of it, I couldn't even see the end of it! We had to stand on the platform and slowly we went up. I held on tightly to a pole, we were slowly really getting high... and Bolt even started to jump, did he want us all to fall to our death?!! Luckily Carla stopped him.
It was about 25 floors when the platform stopped. I had never been this high in my life, and didn't dare to look down... There was a door, with behind it a big room with a wooden desk. The walls were filled with old stuff. Maybe even some nice artifacts? Behind the desk there was a tall pale man in a black cloak, and behind him a strong looking woman with black hair and a gun. The man was older then us, and welcomed us as the newcomers?
Tesla and me tried talking to him. While Tesla told about our story and our ark, I tried to convince him to release the Pure-Ones. But he kept saying the wanted to know more about where we are from. It also become very clear he didn't care at all about the Pure-Ones, and couldn't tell us if they were alive or not. I even started to wonder if he cared about anyone besides himself. His only opinion was that he was great because he could make children.
I did learn that all these mutant-woman are not his children, just the small ones. But when asking about the past, how he got here and that kind of things, he didn't give any clear answer. It all lead back to how great he was and that we all should recognise that, and that he could also help our Ark with getting children. Something weird was going on here... How did this situation became to be? Was he an Ancient one? Soo many questions...
In the meanwhile Tesla continued trying to set up trade agreements and this kind of stuff. Why did she wanted to cooperate with such a man? And she was very close to revealing the location of our Ark when Lincoln shut her up. Not much after that we left the room, without any way to free the Pure-Ones, and without any useful information, except that this Chairman is crazy...
We were lead to a place to sleep. It looked like we were alone, so we started to evaluate the situation... It didn't looked good for the Pure-Ones... Then Flux started growling. A woman appeared from the shadows. She was eavesdropping on us, and introduced herself as Krin. Apparently she also got tired of the Chairman controlling everything, and his quest for more power. She also wanted this to stop! But how?
She explains that half the people here, all man, want this to stop also. And maybe a few other woman? I also asked her about the past, but seems she can't remember anything from when she was young, similar to us...
Could it be possible to free the man and Pure-Ones, and convince the woman to live in a different way? Make and end to this Chairman?| Session 0 | Session 11 | Session 12 | Session 13 | Session 31 |
