...Am I the only one who thinks that news report was odd? There's never been any mention of neighboring towns, and they expect us to leave.

[Filtered to Iceland]Iceland. I need you to do me a big favor and find a safe place to hide. The basement, a friend's house, anywhere. You'll probably think I hit my head for suggesting this, but even Danmark

If... by odd you mean... brutal... then, yes.

[bornwithskison]

It's not really that bad, considering some of the things I've seen, but I guess brutal could be the right word... It's just making me a little uneasy.

[weaponsparked]

... Even with what I've seen, that... shouldn't happen.

Given how off their processors the drones went a few months ago? I don't blame you for being nervous.

[bornwithskison]

At least not anymore. You should have seen how some humans behaved in the darker days.

I wouldn't be this nervous normally... I just have a family member that I'm worried about now.

[weaponsparked]

I'm... not entirely sure I want to witness more mass murders.

And I've a friend. All we can do is keep an op--keep an eye on them, I suppose.

[bornwithskison]

Trust me. You don't.

We can protect them--or at least try.

[weaponsparked]

Yes... I... I don't. You've that right.

You have any training, O mysterious stranger on the phone line?

[bornwithskison]

I've done my fair share of pillaging, plus wars.. I'm fairly skilled with an axe, but I preferred swords back then. And you can call me Norway.

[weaponsparked]

... Pillaging. Right. That's... normal.

Have any such weapons here?

[bornwithskison]

I was a Viking in my younger days.

My 'friend' has an axe here, but it's too heavy for me to use properly. The last time I tried to use it, I broke three ribs.

[weaponsparked]

... a what?

Try a broom. I've found they make decent substitutes.

[bornwithskison]

Explorers, merchants, warriors, and robbers.

A broom?

[weaponsparked]

I've... never heard of that.

Yes, a broom. You know what that is?

[bornwithskison]

We were a big deal until the early thousands.

...Yes.

[weaponsparked]

Early thousand... what?

So give it a try.

[bornwithskison]

Years.

Okay.
