The train car holds a thick, waiting silence, broken only by the soft rustle of a turned page. Olivia sits alone, a book resting open in her lap.

"The others... they've gone into the city. They promised to bring help." Her expression darkens, the memory of the foul-smelling mist and the dreadful noises outside resurfacing. She gives a slight shake of her head, forcing her smile to hold. "I don't mind the wait. Actually... I can't leave. My legs... they don't work as they should."
