Old House Exploration

Old House Exploration is a mission that gets the player used to fighting in an enclosed environment with a lot of enemies.

## Synopsis

The Elder asks The Hero if he has trained his sharpshooting skills yet. The Elder needs a volunteer to help explore an Old House that is infested with zombies. The Elder then requests The Hero to meet him at the campfire at night while everyone is sleeping. At night, The Elder says that supplies for the winter are running low. The Hero is surprised to hear this as all of them had a really nice goulash for dinner and all seems well. The Elder tells The Hero that the stew was made of something the hero was better not knowing (it was cooked from the bones of the resident Rooster). The Hero then asks if he would be eaten as punishment if he does not bring back supplies, which The Elder replies that Frank suggested that they eat The Hero first. The Elder than jokingly adds that Leila wanted to have a taste of The Hero as he was as "sweet as honey". The Hero then journeys to the old shelter, which was located west of the Woodlands Settlement.

The Hero defeats some zombies as he arrives and searches an old tent for supplies. He finds nothing. He goes on to search the Old House, which was converted to a food warehouse before being abandoned. After killing more zombies, he enters the house and kicks down a locked door. Finally, he finds sacks of food. Afterwards, he finds fuel from an abandoned gas tanker and leaves the area to relay information to The Elder.

*[The Elder is waiting for The Hero by the campfire. The Hero goes over to him.]*

The Hero: Were you looking for me?

The Elder: Yeah... yeah... sit down.

The Elder: We have quite a serious problem. We ran out of supplies last week.

The Hero: What? We are doing great, look at that goulash!

*[The Hero gestures to the pot of goulash they had for dinner.]*

The Elder: You don't want to know what it is made of. But I think we are going to have a good sleep tomorrow.

*[It turns out that the resident Rooster was cooked in the pot of stew.]*

The Elder: The winter is coming and we need to prepare as best as possible.

The Hero: So I have to bring supplies from your old house or be eaten as punishment, right?

The Elder: Well, when I was discussing with Frank, he proposed to eat you first!

The Hero: What a jerk, is there someone else who would like to eat me?

The Elder: Hard to say, but I've heard Leila saying that you are as sweet as honey.
