[The radio stutters to life, a crackling voice unfamiliar to the Library and Church inhabitants for sure. A woman's voice, lined with steel and the sort of absolute determination you could forge weapons on, breaks through, level and in control.]

All stations, all stations, all stations.

This is Shepard. My position is Bridgeville Mall, Bridgton, Maine.

We are currently relegated as a safe zone for the mist situation. If you are within the vicinity of the mall, or feel you can reach it without staying exposed for too long, we recommend traveling here. We are stocked with emergency rations, food and water, and have both to spare if you are able to make your way to us.

If you choose to make your way towards the mall, stay alert, and be careful. We're keeping the lights on for you, and we'll be ready to help when you arrive. Out.
