Thirtieth
[Filtered away from the first gens, and any who would relay information back to them]
[John's paid attention, at least, and followed Jr's. filtering idea. After all, if you're just going to hand information over to people who want you dead and/or dry of alcohol, well, you're just asking for trouble]
These troubles we've been having with the outsiders makes me glad things don't run here the same as they do in New Austin. There are rival gangs all over the damned territory, and when they have an issue with one another, one heads over to another and they resolve their differences by shooting at each other and taking their women.
Sure, we've had our things plundered, but at least no one's been strung up by their neck and left for the wolves to feed on. [Not that Paradisa has wolves, but shhh don't ruin his point] They're making demands of alcohol? Just give it to them, it ain't like we can't wish for more, and it's better that than asking for our lives.
...'Least all that water's gone now. I hope we don't have another trip to the high seas for a good long while.
