Chapter 117: Back at the Dam

• That evening everyone had eaten the last bits of food that were available to them that Lisa and Sadie had collected. The rabbit and two squirrels Lisa brough back from her trip were a big help too. Though it was not much, there was still enough food to go around for all of them to feel full. It was after this time that Lisa decided to speak to Zane about the new volunteers and if he truly was going to remain loyal to her, in spite of working with the ERM.
• Everyone had gathered around the fire sitting on wood boxes and telling stories of neat or silly things they had done. The sun had gone down not long ago and it's burning glow still illuminated the horizon. Up until now everyone had been getting along well.
• Lisa stood up and stretched. "Well, it's getting late now and before I go to sleep, Zane, I need to speak with you."
