A miner es out of a mio see that the dust storm had finally past and he along with other men pushed his cart into the end of the track where it would be moved to the the processiion of the mine where workers would make sure water goes over the rocks to separate it form the ore while men collect it to be ter pced in another line for smelting and refining . The ore they were processing was shiny gold. To think even in the apocalypse there were those who would always see the value in shiny things . One worker remarked to another “ they pulled me off the munition manufacturing lio help with this, one would think the federal gover would have more important things to do than to oversee the setup of a new mine . It also doesn’t help that those Serpent’s Fang cultists have to watch use all day to make sure we don’t steal anything. I saw them beat a man to near death after allegedly stealing gold and they never even found any traband on him. I ’t believe the gover just lets these guys do what they want.”
“The gover gets it money supply backed by gold so they are desperate to get as much as possible, maybe even to sell to other tries for things they desperately need. I heard the Iron Union was buying from them and gave them ons iurn . I guess I shouldn’t be surprised sihose guys trol all of Europe but I still don’t know where these Serpent’s Fang guys came from or why they wear those creepy masks that make you feel they are reag into your soul.” Said the other worker
“In less serious news I heard about Colt Coltso mad and became a real gunslinger after his st movie sunk like the titanic. Most assume he’s dead or turned into one of our cultist friends watg over our every move. But I heard from my brother in w that he showed up in a town called greenfield and was causing quite a stir with the locals.” Remarked a worker who overheard the versation
“I always thought he had a stupid name , Colt Coltson, that’s like naming yourself John Johnson. But he opur with the dies so what do I know. “ said the Mining camps head cook
A bell rang meaning that break time was over and that the men would have to get bato the mio get the blood of the try pumping , and hope that this dust bowl would be a temporary dition that would only dey the iable of normalcy returning to their world.
