Victory, Freedom and Intrigue
Life can be sad and in the apocalypse it was guaranteed to be so. But the Victory over the Valley People and the use of Sun Tsu’s ‘The Art of War’ brought Freedom to the last of the Settlements. The Intrigue came when we found a young Nadia and her father entering Brian’s Bunker and setting the stage for what is coming next. Great story. You’ll enjoy it!

Liberation
Enjoyed this episode very much. I especially enjoyed the thought that it was the beginning of the end and the end of the beginning. I look forward to seeing how you tie the back story to the main storyline. I already see how Campbells girlfriend ties in but the rest will be interesting to read.
