The days that followed were quiet on the mountain. There was no mist in sight, no mutated or mutant animals attacked fortress four. Murmurs on the base rolled that it was because the watchers who were the bringers of disaster were pleased with the offerings.
They had been taking fish to them regularly, and some people were certain that they had won their favor.
Initially, some residents had been happy about the fish being used to feed the watchers. Many thought it was a waste of food. No one dared to question the activity anymore.
Sunshine did not fully believe like other people, but she was still glad to see such peace in a time of chaos.
Daily activities went on as normal and the residents of fortress four who had adapted to their new life sometimes forgot that they were in an apocalypse. They had adapted to the winter and considered it normal weather.
Sometimes, snow was collected and piled on the roads in the base for people to play with. The children loved it so much.
