In the interest of clarity for new arrivals, myself among them, I have a few questions that may seem blatantly obvious to everyone who's been here longer.

Am I understanding correctly that many of us here are being transformed into something else, much like the rain's temporary effects had on us recently?

Is this likely to happen to everyone?

Does it have anything to do with the brands we have been given? 'Runes'

Does anyone know how to repair a broken driver's side window for a M939 truck?

Finally, if you are obviously nonhuman, changed or naturally so, please leave a note as to what you look like so I know you are considered an ally and not an active threat.

Given the creatures that attacked in the storm, and earlier messages suggesting they may have once 'been like us', I do not wish to make a mistake.

We do have a common goal overall. I believe that helps.

All of us were torn from our worlds, thrust into uncertain circumstances, and forced to face treacherous trials and unwanted transformations.

These seem like greater priorities than any discrepancies between our worlds, cultures, customs, and skills. Whether or not this remains true, time will tell.

As you say. As trite as it is, we must hope for the best.

WHOOPS! I thought I got this. apparently I forgor

I do wonder how many the Convoy can feasibly carry, however.

If this pattern continues and more new arrivals join us, there's a genuine risk that we hit capacity.

Obviously, that's hypothetical, but in the event that this becomes a cyclical pattern, it likely wouldn't hurt to prepare more thorough introductory resources either.

Is that not why we are all assigned individual vehicles? Eventually I imagine we'll be expected to keep our belongings and sleeping arrangements off the convoy itself, which will remain for more group oriented purposes such as meals and bathing.

Unfortunately, a motorcycle doesn't make for the most accommodating sleeping arrangements, so I'll have to rely on the convoy for that, or salvage a tent at some point or another.

But I suppose if nothing else, I have seniority.
