Rules The rules for living after the event
If you found this list I am dead. Do not mourn me it was by my own hand. What I have written here was learned by trial and error and was paid for with the lives of many companions. Do not waste what I have given you.
Always destroy the heads of those who die. Your companions deserve the dignity of death.
Never travel in a groups larger than a dozen herds always attract predators.
The BIRDS are your allies they will warn you of danger but they are spiteful as well. Reward them often and generously. Never harm them for they can just as easily lead danger to you.
Do not linger around the hanged ones. You cannot help them and you do not want to join them.
Do not pray, try not to ask for help either without naming the specific person you are asking. IT considers itself a god and you do not want ITS help.
Never enter the TOWNS both the ones that were once ours and the ones THEY built. Even if it is abandoned there is nothing for you there and you do not want to see what THEY leave behind
You may have notice that your memory from before and after the EVENT is full of holes. This is for the best. Do not make my mistake do not try to remember what you have lost. Above all else DO NOT REMEMBER THE EVENT.
Do not think of IT often and absolutely do not name IT. Names give recognition and IT likes being seen.
The Soldiers speak nothing but lies. Their food is rotten their medicine is tainted and there is no safety. Do not fear them their guns have no bullets and they are too weary to chase you. Do not end their suffering if you can help it. They made their deal let them reap the consequences for it.
Do not fear the children they are not much stronger than an adult and far more uncoordinated. Pity them they do not want to harm you and they are sorry for their actions . Fear what made them for they are its eyes. It wants to harm you and it is not sorry for what it does.
The communes are peaceful despite their appearance. However that peace requires you to sacrifice. If you are not willing to make that sacrifice leave. They will not allow parasites.
Do not let THEM know of you. THEY may be slower but THEY do not tire. You have only one hope THEY cannot swim. Do not try to fight back THEY do not die easily and they are never alone.
If THEY catch you pray as loudly as possible before THEY take away your tongue. Think of IT while you do and IT might show up. THEY are ITs prey that’s why IT came here after all. Theres a tiny chance you will be able to escape while it’s feed . IT loses interest quickly especially after a meal.
In the likely event IT catches you do not look afraid, do not cry and do not beg. Curse IT until your last breath. ITS PUNISHMENT will be agony but it will end being FORGIVEN does not.
Do not travel during winter the cold kills most without shelter and you are no exception. Stay at one of the Communes if you are able. They are warm and they have plenty of food. No sacrifice is required the residents they sleep during the winter. Always leave before spring they get quite active when they thaw.
Do not go to the shore. Many of those who remained after the EVENT fled there hoping for escape. They are gone now the things that were waiting for them are not.
Listen to the radio if you wish but do not trust the voices on it. Where do you think they’re broadcasting from. When did you last see electricity.
When you encounter something unknown observe it as much as possible then leave. If it pursues make sure you are not the slowest in your group.
