| Make the Machines Go Boom! | Hey Anders! I'm writing a note like I promised! Me and Mila arrived here in Lerberget without any trouble. You didn't need to worry, just like I told you!
And also, hey to anyone else who reads this. We're trying to communicate with these bottle things so that you will know what we're up to and stuff. You should do it too! It's actually quite nice to find bottles from other people you didn't know were out here. So, Aamiina of The Resistance here. Recently joined and eager to fight, if you wanted to know!! We got the letter from Elsa yesterday, and man are we ready to do this. It feels so good to know that there are like, more people out there, and they're working together with us, making plans and stuff. Everyone in The Resistance is super friendly! Even Elsa seems like a super cool leader and ALSO a nice person! I hope to meet her and the others once we carry out this mission! We're preparing to leave for Leräng, get the explosives, and make the machines go boom! We leave tomorrow, so come see us at the mountain when it's OUTS!!!!
Baaad neeeeews! A stupid biggie machine monster thingy came in the night and just blew our house right up!!! Thank God the others had placed lots of land mines so we had time to get out of there and could take it out. But man, it was CHAOS. I don't even know if the others survived or not, and there's like, still machines patrolling or whatever they're doing. It's like they came here looking for us, stupid monster machines! Whoever finds this note, if you're in better condition than I am right now (that would be if your legs are uninjured enough to run), you need to carry out the mission! Please. We were going to make this place an actual home for people, with a real base, and like, communication stuff! Please, even Elsa is counting on you, we need to make the stupid machines pay for this! //Aamiina, forever a resistance fighter |

| Wall-Trembling Sounds | Hello friend! Thank you for stopping by our home - even if we're not here to meet you right now!
If you have the time, please consider staying a while and we might be back. The kids always talk about when they'll meet "The Champions" again (you should hear the superhero stories they've come up with about all of you! Our favourite is probably when "Old Riikka: Champion of Potatoes and Earth" stared at the ground so determinedly that seven hundred potatoes plopped up all at the same time - such a nice superpower to have!). So don't be a stranger! We'll find something nice for you to snack on while listening to our kids' stories; that's a promise. But we also have some questions for all of you who travel more than we do. Have you seen any signs that more machines might be coming into the area? It used to be really quiet here, but now we hear them all through the night, waking the kids with those wall-trembling sounds. If you have any further information, we need to know about it. We would hate to leave just as the kids have actually started to laugh and play again. Those teenagers using a boombox to lure the machines to the old barn and shoot them almost had us running, but they apparently knew what they were doing and got all the machines killed; we survived that, just as we survived the initial chaos of this place. Life has actually been pretty good lately before the sounds started. Little Nikoli was so happy when he got to eat a whole can of pineapple for his birthday, you should have seen him! We're not as mobile as others, so know that we're counting on you to tell us what you know. All the best, Marja (and Fredrik, Rubert, Nikoli and Sofia) |

Hey. So, uhm, I guess that if you came here looking for me, you've been wondering why I never came back. Which is totally reasonable. And... I just hope that you all don't hate me. You are my friends, gosh, you are the only ones I have left. But I couldn't lead these people to their deaths. I arrived at location Dammtorp without problem only to find 4 wounded, and 3 missing (went on a supply run and didn't come back, they say). This group is NOT fit to join the assault on the machines at the mountain. The 2 fully healthy adults are needed to tend to the others in the group and cannot be spared for a dangerous mission. We are currently hiding in a cave close to the house as a tank patrols the field outside. Hiding and listening to those heavy footsteps is taking its mental toll on these people. Gosh, on me as well. But we gotta stay smart, and there's a boy here really good at telling the most comforting little stories. Listening to him makes this accursed world disappear and I cannot describe to you how good that feels. We should seriously consider tasking someone in each camp with being a storyteller. I know I would love to hear what noble stories you'd come up with, Ousmane. As soon as the tank moves on, I'm taking these people to the boats to travel down the lake. I will stay with them as long as they need me. Our highest priority should be to protect the civilians after all, as you always go on about, Ousmane. So that's what I'm doing. Please don't hate me. I will pray that you only go through with the attack if you think you have an ACTUAL chance of surviving it. Don't do anything too heroic. /Maria S |
