The Daily Life of a Member of The Talon Company (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I signed my name to a paper I could not read all the way through, in a bar that did not have a name, in a stretch of the Capital Wasteland where nobody asked what you did before and nobody was going to remember what you did after. That is the honest start of it. Not a battle. Not some story where a raider burned my home down and I swore vengeance under a red sky. I was hungry, and there was a man across the table from me with clean armor and cleaner hands, and he had food in front of him, and I
Rivet City Traders vs Megaton Barkeeps the Week the Purifier Finally Ran Dry | Fallout (opens the original)
Read excerpt

How the Water Baron of Dry Basin Lost Every Loyal Settlement in One Poisoned Season | Fallout (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There is a kind of thirst that changes what a person is. I do not mean the kind you feel walking a long stretch between towns, the kind a canteen fixes. I mean the deep kind, the kind that gets into a place and stays there, the kind that turns a man's whole life into a straight line pointing at whatever wet thing he can reach. I have seen that thirst do things to people. I have used that thirst to build everything I ever built. And I am going to tell you how I lost all of it in the space of one
