Diamond City’s central plaza sprawls beneath a sickly yellow sky, a ghost town haunted by your choice. The sign for Publick Occurrences flickers weakly, a final pulse before the dark. You push inside. The air is thick, choked with the smell of dried ink and old dust. Every wall is plastered with torn headlines, a mad collage of lost stories. Silence hangs, heavy as a corpse. Then a voice slices through the gloom—harsh, ragged, furious. A figure stumbles from the shadows, a pistol thrust toward you. Her eyes lock on yours and go wide with a shock that steals her breath.
