Day 1 - 1st April 2248 08:03 AM
I decided, since I'm starting the caravan route with my Dad I thought I'd start a Diary. I'm really exicted. I've been waiting for this for so long. I've trained for hours upon hours. Learn the Caravan's route map off by heart and I'm setting off with Dad, Hounder, the Caravan Guard nicknamed 'Guai' and the Pack Brahmin in a few hours. I've known all of these all my life. I never really knew who my mother was, I've been best friends with Hounder ever since Dad brought him home the poor pup. He's fully grown and quite lethal from what I've heard. The Pack Brahmin I've spent alot of my life feeding him and clearing the muck out of his pen. We don't really have a name for him. Never knew why. And Guai, she's taught me everything I know. I don't know why no one knows her name, but she's got that name for being the best tactically at killing those damn Yao Guais I've heard about. She's been like a sister to me all my life and if it weren't for her, I wouldn't know a thing about guns. No-one really knows where she came from either. She wandered into The Commons a few years back looking for a job... No name, No background. Just wanting a job. She's made quite a name for herself and my Dad's caravan. With it now being one of the most protected. Mark, the usual Guard was recently hurt badly. Some say he dosen't have long left. But if he does make it, he won't be able to work again. He's got a place in The Commons of course. And with the Caps he's earned, I reckon he's good for life... Oh, Dad's calling me to gear up. I'm out. I'll write another entry when we get to our first stop or rest point.
