00:00Oh, finally, a break and a hot meal. It's good to have something hot in your belly,
00:13eh? It wasn't like this when the old captain was in charge, I tell you. Now, this city's
00:20bigger than it used to be. Where there were buildings, districts stretched as far as the
00:26eye can see. Can you remember how, back then, we were only required to keep the generator
00:36running? Now every factory eats twice as many resources. We need coal, oil, heat stamps.
00:50Yes, life was a bit warmer back then, but bloody more complicated if you ask me.
00:57That's only one side of the coin. We're still sick, hungry, and cold. Yet some things come
01:08back to us from the past. A man cannot even walk outside without the fear of being mugged,
01:18or even worse, killed in cold blood.
01:26It's the people, dear sir, they are the problem.
01:31Now everyone belongs to a faction of some sort. I understand the technocrats want machines to
01:38make our lives easier, but what Iceblood say about evolution is true madness.
01:44I guess that's why Stuart built the council hall.
01:51Long time ago, captain just said what to do and we did it. No questions asked.
01:59Now every law has to be discussed, negotiated, but in the end, someone's always unhappy.
02:09Did you hear that some delegates come to council hall from outside the city?
02:19Why not? We're all in this together, but that idea is risky if you ask me.
02:26But that's not the only place where scorn and defiance have sneaked in.
02:31It took over the research institute as well, making work on each project a matter of support
02:37and rejection. I dread to think where this city is headed.
02:44It's pretty obvious, ain't it? What's obvious?
02:47Why some hardshack legionnaires was sniffing their butts with the overseers.
02:53Tyranny is upon us, I tell ya. If the Stuart won't do anything about it,
02:58they'll take over all districts and take out any rivals.
03:02If any future awaits us at all, it lies beyond the city walls and the vast frostland.
03:11How many places that are richer resources are there? One can only wonder.
03:18We need the Stuart to guide us outside and reclaim what's rightfully ours.
03:24In order to grow, we have to expand. I can already see it.
03:31New, vast colonies sprawling from the snow, connected with our city,
03:39with those magnificent skyways, pumping oil and food like lifeblood.
03:46Maybe this will satiate the ambitions of those windbags in the council hall.
03:53I doubt that, ma'am.
03:55Meanwhile, the tension in our beloved city rises.
04:00Let's hope the Stuart's instincts won't lead us astray.
04:05Leaders should be made of stunner stuff, I tell you.
04:09Especially now when we're all faced with never-ending White House riots in the street,
04:16crime, industrials, fumes, people are st-
04:21Wait.
04:24Wait.
04:24Wait.
04:25Can you hear that?
04:27Yes.
04:28Yes.
04:30There's sound in the alarm!
04:35I've heard stories about the distant places.
04:40Some of them seem real, others, well, pure fantasies.
04:49The city is like a human body.
04:53Has its limits, or at least that's what they say.
04:59Yet maybe you have other ideas.
05:04Care to take a sip and tell us about them?
