Cold, foggy morning in The Frontier. We started our journey very early to be out of sight of scav looter parties. Esther still don't want to talk and Wrench is very focused on her job of taking us across the wastes alive. Finally got to the Breach Outreach outpost. The place seems to be an old luxury hotel of sorts, retrofitted to be a fort for rich scavenger crews and professional mercenaries. Luckly, Wrench got a pass for us all, she has business with one of the powerful there. The main hall is populated by mercs and scavs, the suites are reserved for company leaders, important people and for Mr. Reach himself, the founder of this place. It seems he also runs a radio business out of the old tower on top of the building. Says he keeps people of Portland informed, tells only 'true stories'. Funny that some people still care about 'journalism' when the world is going to hell outside. Well, information has an actual tactical value for powerful merc companies and scav crews, the Breach Outreach Radio even plays old world music to entretain the masses out there fighting for their lives. Have to say say this is one of the most interesting places I've visited so far... Instead of abandoned ruins full of monsters and bandits or backwater NCR towns, people are actually doing pretty well here. Gotta take notes of this place for when I retire...
"The receptionist is an actually working Mr. Handy!"
"Scavs gather around the fountain to relax while their leaders close deals in junk..."
"There's plenty of food, shelter, but not a single cheap pussy to be found..."
Wrench ask us for help with a task she was assigned. She had to investigate the old Portland Police station for one of Mr. Breach's 'reporters' and she said the job would pay nicely. It's just around the corner from the tower and she promised to cut her escort payment in half If we helped her. Another old world horror?! At first I was not really much into It, but Esther convinced me It was a good deal. Plus, what else could happen?! We've already seen mutant rad bacteria! We'll be packing everything in two days and going out in another adventure... Our journey seemed to have just begun!
