It's the dawn of the twenty-fifth century and Mr. House's vision for humanity finally nears fruition. A short story in two parts, this is a window onto the world he created, as seen through the eyes of a reluctant witness. (Distantly post-canon, rated T for mild language.)

A long road, no fast travel, a whole bottle of whiskey and an unlimited supply of ammo. Friendship, purpose, and more blooms in the most unlikely of places.
