If you can hear this, stop what you're doing. Put down your weapons, calm your thoughts, and put all fears to rest. Don't you wish for a better future? For something more?
My name is Laramie Ringer, but I am referred to by most as the Oberson. I say by most because unlike those of you lost in our new world, we have yet to lose our great city to the dead.
How you ask? How can it be that an entire city still stands in the face of the end? Because we don't turn on one another. We are those who thrive, and those who survive. We are the city of Crawford.
If you're getting this transmission, then you're somewhere on the West Coast. We offer you our support, and we offer you sanctuary. Come stand with us in the center of the new world and be a part of the change.
We have food, access to water, electricity, and impenetrable walls. Come join us and be a part of the end of all this madness. In each major city across the coast we have sent out scouts. They are here to help in any way they can and bring willing new members back to our ever-growing settlement. Look for trucks with this symbol. Three points through a triangle, that's the mark of change.
*jumbled garble*
Thirteen blocks of clean, roamer-free streets provide ample space for our newcomers. With expansions underway and a militia protecting the citizens from the dangers of outside, Crawford has quickly become the most secure place this side of the United States. Our founders Oberson, Carver, and Joan make sure that everything runs smoothly. It truly is our hope for the future.

My name is Joan, and I oversee communications here in the city of Crawford. We ensure that every survivor is thoroughly examined and placed into one of our work branches. This process allows us to eliminate waste and ensure that everyone does their part. You could be a part of our security team, work in the gardens to supply our settlement with food or become a part of our expansive medical team.
The possibilities are endless, and with your help, we can make tomorrow a little brighter.
*jumped garble*
Look for our people, or make your way to Savannah. Our doors are open to all those willing to do their part in the new world. God bless you all, and stay safe out there.
I figured it would be easier to just absorb the drabbles into this story, so I will be reposting those character drabbles into the main story so it's less confusing for everyone. 3
