- 9: And you are a blind man, guided by fear.
- 1: Sometimes fear is the appropriate response.
- 5: This was the first thing we built together.

- 1: The gas killed everything. I led us here...to Sanctuary. Here we waited for the war to end. Slowly the world become silent. All that remains now, is the beast. So we stay hidden, and we wait for it too to sleep.
- 9: But where did it come from? Why is it hunting us?
- 1: Questions like that are pointless! We need to protect ourselves. Keep ourselves out of danger. To many of us have already been lost.
- 9: But he isn't lost.
