Survivors - The River

Episode 23 – A Stranger

I am a poor wayfaring stranger - Traveling through all these highs and lows
I heard there was no sickness - And no toil or danger
Just mercy and plenty - Where peaceful waters flow - Where peaceful waters flow




From Marble Beach letter to her farther Thane Beach, written 6th of May 2726 AD
Dear farther
Thanks for the wonderful wedding you held for us at Restaurant Mercier, by the way do you know that the former owner have moved to Nara Fields, a settlement just 8 km from here.
I will take you advice and not work at the café, besides the administration of purchasing and sales, as long as the child is not able to take care of itself. Already found a replacement in Terry Scully, a former student who chose to stay here after his education was finished. Had my last shift yesterday. We are so much in love, all is perfect, just feeling too heavy and can’t wait for the child to come out.

Greg Preston’s Diary 9th of May 2726 AD
I can feel the pressure from all the new people that have comes down to the valley, so I have taken a few days of from the settlement, camping and fishing in nature enjoying my solitude, at a beautiful spot where several rivers meet.

Greg Preston’s Notes for next Ent Council meeting, written 12th of May 2725 AD.
We have had sightings of strangers, both in “Greg’s River” and “Nara Fields”, probably members of wandering tribes or small groups of homeless thieves. Attempting to steal from us. While we sleep sometimes Pongo react with loud barking suggesting they are quite near at night-time. It could also be a poor lonely survivor, but we can’t take any chances.

Greg Preston’s Diary 16th of May 2726 AD
It has become very popular amongst the youngsters to visit the small coffee and food stand that Shina Nara runs over at Nara Fields. They often spend hours hanging out and socialising over there. In general, it is fine as long as they don’t spend too much pocket money.

Extracts from “The Wilderness” by Michiko Vaughan
I am glad that Charles can make us a living from his work at the trade station, but must admit my live have become a little lonely. Wash, clean, sweep and after all that just enough energy left to read a bit in a book before bedtime. I can feel I’m getting old.
