It's been almost 3 months since that nuclear blast destroyed Beijing and most of the surrounding areas. Not many people found this bunker before then, and the majority of those who arrived later on have since died from radiation sickness. There are only 23 of us left now, and most of us are ill or suffering from malnutrition. For quite some time we were trapped here, surrounded by Afflicted, but they eventually succumbed to the radiation, too. This bunker was very poorly stocked, and now we've exhausted even those meager rations. I suppose the National People's Congress and the State Council of the People's Republic never considered the Failsafe Omega project worthy of support. But who could have imagined that we would ever face such a formidable foe from within!
We've decided to abandon the bunker to search for food. We'll move west even though it's probably not the safest idea. But we're too worn down to really care very much any more. We would rather take our chances on the outside than remain here to face inevitable starvation. Although the Zone 16 and 17 bunkers are quite far away, we will attempt to reach one of them. It's difficult to know at this point whether we'll cross paths with Afflicted, or if we'll be able to walk such distances even if there are no confrontations. This will be the last post from this site. Wish us luck……..we're going to need it.
