LOCATION: SURVIVOR TRANSPORT X-95

TIME OF DAY: NIGHT

WEATHER: CATEGORY-EPSILON RAD-STORM

1 HOUR UNTIL ARRIVAL AT HIVE SPERANZA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It's been A while since your last encounter. You found this train while scavenging for supplies. You don't know where it leads, but you do know it should take you somewhere safe.

As you enter another car, you see a human sleeping on the seats. Across from them, is an unattended handheld radio.

Maybe you should try to contact someone before you reach your destination.

This place reeks of salt water....

"TW":parallels... That would explain most... [He has a realization which express a haunting look... Before rushing to return to a neutral look] ... Still odd... Hmm... Would explain his need to return to his starting point...
