<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

Do you ever make progress? Something new and better?

@Balance

Than what?

[Balance]

<Snipped quote by Balance>

Than what?

@Webmaster

Than the way you live now, whatever it is.

*Shrugs*
I don't know how much better it can get. What about your group? Do you often do new things?

@Webmaster

Always. But—your way of life is—how long have you done things the same way?

*Shrugs*
I've been told that ever since things stabilized a bit since the accident, we found a way of life that worked and stuck with it. Other camps weren't so lucky.
*Looks down*
But at least they leave food behind when they're gone.

@Webmaster

Thania said that this city has been dead for over two hundred years.

@Balance

*Nods*
It has.

[Balance]

<Snipped quote by Balance>

*Nods*
It has.

@Webmaster

And things have just been... the same since then?

@Balance

I don't know. I just know this is how I've always lived.

@Webmaster

Do you know if the whole world is like this?

*Shakes my head*
We don't really see anyone else, mostly. There are some small scuffles with other factions, but there aren't many.

@Webmaster

I'm going to find out. The whole world stagnant... that's just not right.

What do you mean?

@Webmaster

From what you tell me, nothing changes. Not for the better, not for the worse.

@Balance

I don't know if I would go that far. It's much easier for things to get worse than to get better.

[Stabby]

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

With bandits? They like to steal our supplies and cause trouble for search groups.

@Webmaster

So they're just doing the usual bandit things? *Is looking mildly interested as I ask this.*

<Snipped quote by Stabby>

I'll be sure to. I want to explore this place a bit more, though.

<Snipped quote by Webmaster>

@Balance

Understandable. I honestly find these ruined cities fascinating.

And I can probably answer that a bit better since I've been around and seen a few places, but only if you want me to.

@Stabby

Usually. Attacking us when we're all at camp probably wouldn't end well for them.

@Webmaster

That's no good, either.

@Stabby

Please, do.

@Balance

Sorry...
