alright he grabs a rifle and says "Alright fill it up and get on with your day, oh and also inside we got a radio that can reach the enclave/encampment so use that one."

Fred stays clear of the building. Being inside concrete and metal is now deeply uncomfortable to him.

Mario moves into the shop and you see him fiddling with the radio, then talking to someone.
Mario comes out sighing. "Apparently someone else had the marin headlands idea first."
"They are calling themselves the enclave and said if we have an demi humans we can turn right around and fuck off."
Joshua (the stores owner in case you forgot somehow) walks up and says "Enclave turn you down huh, it figures those guys were always dicks."
He thinks something over for a second "I am part of a... fraternity we have a base that is not too far from here and ill make you a deal, you finish your buisness in the area and I will bring you there with the other refugees we have rescued."

"Sounds fair to me, we will take care of this necromancer that will not leave us alone."
Ray starts walking to the truck and motions to everyone to hop in.
"C'mon guys, lets get the hell out of dodge."

Fred nods. "Thank you, Joshua." He is a little suspicious of the word 'fraternity', but believes he owes it to Joshua to trust in human kindness. "We will crush this Enclave like vines crush concrete after we beat the necromancer."

Black turns to Fred.
"Wait, we're crushing people who don't like us now?" he asks confusedly.
This better not be going where I think it's going... he thinks worriedly.

"No, we're crushing people who, aside from not liking us, probably have an active genocidal program and are taking the land for destructive rather than inclusive and protective purposes. I have had a community try to kill me for who I was, but I tried to evade them rather than fight them, and in the end ran instead of hunting them down. This appears to be different."

"Mario didn't say that he said they said not to bother showing up if we had demi-humans with us. They probably don't trust them because everything that has attacked them displayed inhuman characteristic (psychically) or powers that no normal human would have. They could have a program genocidal program or maybe they are just afraid." Quinn says
"We shouldn't crush them until we have proof assuming we even can because if they have a genocidal program, they must have some defense against or a way of capturing/killing us."

"what evidence is that? they could just want to be safe and away from danger, metahumans present danger... thats how it goes!" brian will say to fred
waitaminue... if there are people there, then that means Samina may have survived! Brian seems to have renewed vigor and hope

"Remember that I am a druid. Fear is no excuse to keep the land away from those who need it. It is selfish and wrong. If reaching them with words is possible, I will do so. But if they are anything like the Enclave, they will not be simply afraid, but actively genocidal or dangerous. And Brian, the world is dangerous. Blacks present danger, whites present dangers, women present dangers. I can sympathize, but not justify."

"I didn't know druids were so resolute" Black smirks before taking several pronounced strides towards Fred.
He slaps a hand on Fred's shoulder and says light heartedly "Problems need a solution, killing is a solution. I sympathize..." Black's grip then tightens on Fred's shoulder as he stares Fred right in the eye. His face now replaced by a visage of stone cold seriousness.
"...but I can't justify"
Black stays there a moment, keeping eye contact. His expression stays serious but beneath the surface he silently implores Fred to extinguish his suspicions.
Show me you know what I mean...show me I'm wrong. Show me I'm just paranoid. Show me please...

"Man, you guys need to lighten up...well. I guess David is acting normal and i never met you before this Joe but as serious as this situation is it looks like it will remain this way for a long time so we need to relax not get all high strung."Quinn says
"I only meant we don't need to go killing everyone who doesn't agree with us ,however, we should just kill when we need to. If they mean us harm then we fight but its not required maybe they will trust us if we kill this Necro and overlook and eventually trust some demi-humans"

"I did not say killing. I said crushing. Druids must protect nature." Fred's speech remains calm, his cadence even: He is not high-strung or angry, though Quinn may of course interpret such from his voice. "And of course the owl does not kill the eagle merely for disagreement. I am not suggesting such. But if they take the land to themselves and keep others from sanctuary, that is impermissible. If they trust us for defeating the necromancer, then so much the better. But I doubt it."

"Right..." says in response to both Quinn's comment and Freds. He lets go and turns back towards the the vehicle, away from everyone.
"One thing at a time I suppose" he says with a shrug. His voice now back to normal. Though his thoughts are on their same track.
As I thought..sort of. Let's hope that line of power doesn't get any more blurry...for any of us he thinks worriedly before turning back towards the group and letting himself fall into a backwards lean against the land train.

"Besides, Meta-humans have a better chance of protecting themselves than regular people so if they have limited space and food maybe its better they don't allow non-humans. Plus its only one sanctuary if this really happened all over the world then there must be more sanctuary around." Quinn says.
"We should probably get outta here we could be wasting valuable time."

"I agree with Quinn, lets get going and discuss this on the way" Brian looks warily at the gas station attendant, "thank you for the use of your radio"
"I also think that maybe we aught to check out this sanctuary, it may hold some of our loved ones, and if that is the case... i'd say it would be better if we saw them sooner rather than later"

"That'll be difficult though" Black says motioning towards Brian.
"I can understand the idea behind that, but if they don't want metahumans inside they probably won't take too kindly to us just barely outside....might be best to go for the necromancer first anyway. Let the plot move itself along"

OOG: as i understand it, this is a three-pronged fork in the plot path... 1) renegade and away! 2) necromancer 3) that 'fraternity' the guy spoke of
Brian sighs, suspecting that Black may be right, "i still say its worth a try, but not worth the possible dissapointment, alright black" Brian will say, content to wait for a later date

"Meta-humans may have a better chance of protecting themselves, but that's the wrong way of thinking. If we work together, we all live; if we split apart, we hang separately. It is wrong to make the land an instrument of genocide and exclusion." Fred steps into the landtrain. "Let us explore the sanctuary after we defeat the necromancer."
OOG: From Fred's perspective, it's a) necromancer, b) fraternity, c) Enclave.

"We should give it time to determine if its wrong, they may just genuinley want to protect themselves, like everyday people... i don't see anything wrong with that, the seclusion sucks, but if they're not dicks to meta-humans, i'd say its alright" Brian turns to Black, "thanks man, i get what your saying, we aught to give the encampment a little time."
Brian will look at the others, making a fist and raising it into the air, "we should crush this necromancer! he is an obvious plague upon our glorious land and needs to be exterminated!" in real zealot fashon

"I need no time. I know that their actions are repugnant already, all I need to know is what is the appropriate response. Perhaps reaching out, perhaps non-lethal force, perhaps full on force, dependent on what other crimes they engage in."

Mario has been waiting silently this entire time, when he finally speaks up he says "We will talk about it when it comes to it we need to focus on the necromancer, one mistake can fuck us up."
Mario boards the land train and tells ray to get them moving towards the necromancer.

"No worries man. I hear you, and I'm sure that an inevitable plot device will make that our next stop" Black replies to Brian, sympathizing with the desire to see definite signs that family and friends are alive.
After listening to the dialouge that followed Black follows suit and boards the land train.
"I propose we group shank him after a brief skirmish with the conjured ghouls that will act as filler for the first ten minutes" Black half jokes.
Though wiping on a boss means death for now...but we've already fought bosses and won. I guess trusting in my friends(Black smiles internally at the cliche) is the best I can do right now. Not to mention...
For screenshot sake Black looks around at each of his friends giving them a proper alone shot.
I've got some pretty good ones.
Black then crosses his arms and does the closed-eyes nod of assurance to be followed by a scene change.
