Entry #4

—————————————————- 1 year later ———————————————————

I guess I should apologize for not writing in so long but I couldn’t, so much has happened from the famines to the mass purges to the revolution, huh I knew it would happen now its just a matter of time before that flame reaches me. So to recap what happened? Well, after the various riots the brotherhood started killing anyone who even dared mention the riots or even talk about a revolution. Then the famines started and finally after months of suffering from hunger the people revolted and the Brotherhood couldn't do nothing, they had superior weapons but they couldn't hold the lower parts of the city for long, and after more months of fighting the brotherhood has been driven back to the upper parts of the city, we’re cornered like rats with no way out and soon the revolutionaries will come up here and end the revolution.

I knew this would happen and im ready for whatever comes next, maybe they’ll spare us? no they’ll kill us, none of us will survive will be made an example like the Brotherhood made an example when the purges occurred….

And what about the Brotherhood? they couldn't handle a revolution some of them are hold up in their little fort of theirs others have gone to the Vault to worship it one last time and finally others have committed suicide seeing as they couldn’t handle the pressure or they were simply scared of the revolutionaries. The view from my balcony has changed, its now only fire and utter chaos. I can hear them, they’ve reached us, they have penetrated the walls, I hear shouting in the distance, some faint gun shots but then I hear more and more shouts. 

Now that I think about it, although I hated the Brotherhood and felt sorry for the people of the lower levels Im not sure whats gonna happen after the revolution, will they finally live in a fair society? or will another regime rise up and be as oppressive as the Brotherhood? Wait I can hear them, they’re outside my house, I wish I could write more but my time has come….

Entry #3

I dont know how many hours I slept but when i woke up I heard faint screams and gunshots in the distance but i didn't bother to get up I thought it was a dream. When i did finally woke up the PA system turned on, I was still in bed when it started and then I heard the Archdrake’s voice He announced that due to the recent riots near the lower parts of the city and the mines the brotherhood had increased the work wages and the brotherhood would be more strict with curfews and such….

I couldn't believe what I was hearing, was the brotherhood that dumb? could they really think that would keep their workers in line? such foolishness, its like an ember, it just need something and then it will turn into a flame…

The past couple of weeks have been unsettling I have stopped going to the market for I fear that situation down there was been worsening more everyday. I cant sleep at night. Theres an ember in this city and its just a matter of time before that ember turns into a flame and that flame will engulf the city in fire and nothing will survive. Nowadays I just sit all day in my balcony with my binoculars and I just observe. I cant do much for I don't have much time left, im old and I know that when the time comes ill be ready….

A couple of months have passed since the incident, and there have been more riots the people are getting tired of the tyranny of the brotherhood….

Entry #2

Today was terrifying  I went to the market in my disguise ( the brotherhood doesn't let the wealthy go down into the lower parts of the city) As reaching the market I saw how the people down there lived, although I've been to the market many times I had really never acknowledged the people there but today was different I don't know why but I saw them, I felt their misery and I saw how the brotherhood treats the majority of its citizens, I saw people in the streets, they were like corpses pale and thin. The people were dirty, starving but worst of all the thing I remember the most was this kid, he was alone, crying was he lost? did he's family left him there? I will never know for I had to get to the market.

As I arrived at the market and started looking through the stalls, I just wanted to get the memories of those people off my head. I couldn't I think it was because of all the junk these scavengers bring. I was still searching the stalls when i saw them from the corner of my eye, a patrol of the brotherhood, they looked menacing and it seemed they were searching for someone. At this point i was scared I couldn't be caught in the lower levels of the city so I decided to run, my leg started hurting but I didn't care I had to get out of the lower parts of the city…

I arrived home exhausted, I couldn't feel my leg nor my body i dropped in my bed and closed my eyes….

Entry #1

So much has happened, I guess the only way to start is with who I am, my name is Elliah Peers, I guess im lucky since im a noble of sorts. Im an old man now so I cant do much so i decided to write this, its one of the few ways i know to conserve my sanity.  I live in the vault. The vault is a very old city, the vault was built un the ruins of a pre-war city, surprisingly some of the buildings from the old city still stand to this day and are used. The reason the vault is so important is because of the vault (reason why the city is called like such) You see, this vault supposedly holds old world technology technology that the brotherhood is very interested in…

Now lets talk about the brotherhood, the old world brotherhood simply referred as the “brotherhood”, they’re a religious zealots who control the city, they worship the vault as their god they think worshipping the vault is the only way of surviving the wastes, those fools. Worst of all they shove their beliefs upon all the citizens of the vault, if they don't worship their precious vault they’ll be tortured or they disappear to be never heard from again. The brotherhood have a hierarchy system theres the peasant class which consists of worker, traders farmers etc….. then theres the noblemen which consist of wealthy people, farm owners philosopher and sophisticated people and finally theres the higher up which consists purely from members of the brotherhood oh and lastly theres the king, or arch drake ( the leader of the vault)

Each day is the same thing, I wake up i eat my dehydrated food  and then i sit in my balcony which is overmatching part of the city, then I don't do much I cant walk for long so i don't go out much but when I do I go to the market stands, sometimes scavengers find useful trinkets which i find entertaining and interesting. For the other people, the people down there though their lives are hard, they work all days sometimes nonstop and then they’re lied to, treated like mindless beings, the cruelty that happens down there is unbelievable.
