[ Atom's Creator ]
Vault Meat
Okay look I'm real sorry I freaked out, but there was no way I was letting her put that thing inside of me
The Mother
Its quiet alright my Daughter. Acolyte Zee told us everything. How you were unpure yet you seeked to become on with Atom and so here you are
Vault Meat
Are you gonna throw me into that Radiated water to make me pure?
The Mother
Throw you? Oh no, your going to jump into his holly waters my child
Vault Meat
Why?
The Mother
Please my child. I mean you no harm, I am the Mother of all Atom's creations, including you
Vault Meat
So your also a Cannibal as well?
The Mother
That is not why your here. You sought to become one of the Dark Disciples and you gave yourself to Atom. But you failed the Ritual, and so there must be a Sacrifice in the name of Atom
Vault Meat
Meaning your gonna gonna cut off my ear now?
The Mother
No child, that is not our way here.
Vault Meat
Oh good because I really like my ear
The Mother
All I ask is you to say a vow in Atoms name and you'll be one of us. If you wish to join us then know this my child, breaking this vow is punishable by death. Now, repeat after me."I swear on Atom's Earth that I will follow and spreed Atom's love across his land"
Vault Meat
"I swear on Atom's Earth that I will follow and spreed Atom's love across his land"
The Mother
"That I will welcome his children to my tit to drink his sweet milk"
Vault Meat
"That I will welcome his children to my tit to drink his sweet milk"
The Mother
"And in doing so do I allow Atom's will to take wherever he needs me. I am a Disciple of Atom and I will serve him till I join him in his glow"
Vault Meat
"And in doing so do I allow Atom's will to take wherever he needs me. I am a Disciple of Atom and I will serve him till I join him in his glow"
The Mother
Welcome Child. You are now officially one of us child
Vault Meat
(When will this nightmare end?)
The Mother
Now, go bathe in his glow as we all have before and pure you will become
Vault Meat
Yes Mother
The Mother
Go my child, go and feel Atoms love
Vault Meat
I have just one little question Mother, what happend to Acolyte Zee? (Persuade}
The Mother
[Successful] Ah yes when the Raiders came, we thought them a threat, thought they'd see us as a threat as well but there Leader offered us a place, a place in her Gang. I'm sure you know those who refused became Slaves or food. We maybe Raiders, but we still serve Atom's will. Acolyte Zee knows this well
Vault Meat
Meaning what?
The Mother
She knew what was coming, as do we all. Now child, are you ready?
Vault Meat
I guess so, this place is rather warm
The Mother
Its his glow that keeps us warm
Vault Meat
Is... Zee okay?
The Mother
Yes, shes okay. Shes here infact, you'll be reunited with her shortly
Vault Meat
Thank you Mother, forgive me its just shes my friend (What the fuck am I saying?)
The Mother
I understand, my child more then you know
Vault Meat
Alright, here I go (Am I really doing this, again?)
The Mother
Once Atom's will has passed. Come see me for we are preparing a feast
Sometime later....
Vault Meat
Mother?
The Mother
Ah yes, I can feel your glow from here. Atom must really have plans for you.
I'm afraid the meal is not ready yet child
Vault Meat
Okay but.. Mother I have more questions
The Mother
Speak them
Vault Meat
Does Atom know you eat people?
The Mother
Yes, it is a new way of the Children but most have adopted it well. We eat to grow in his glow, in his light we are stronger then ever before
Vault Meat
But isnt eating people bad?
The Mother
If it was, why would Atom allow us to do it?
Vault Meat
Fair point. (Shes super crazy)
The Mother
Anything else child?
Vault Meat
Can I go now?
The Mother
Yes, you may go. I'll have the bell run when supper is ready, we all must eat to grow.
Vault Meat
(Gotta get the hell outta here, and soon)
The Mother
Stay close, there was a Deathclaw spotted west of here. I've sent 5 of Atoms best Hunters to gather its meat. We will eat well tonight
Vault Meat
5 Hunters?
The Mother
Yes, 5
Vault Meat
Well, never seen nor ate a Deathclaw before
The Mother
You'll find to enjoy it as much as we do
Vault Meat
I lived on tins of Cram and Instamash so real food is welcome
The Mother
Ah yes, forgive me I forgot you were a Vault Dweller before. You poor thing hiding yourself from Atoms will for all those years, I hope your friends and family have seen the light
Vault Meat
We have (Oh we saw the light alright, the lights of the Vault alarms as Raiders poured into our Vault. Killing anyone in there path. Thank God I'm alive)
The Mother
Go now my dear, rest
Vault Meat
Where can I rest though?
The Mother
Across the Road we have a base, other children have gathered there. Plenty of room for you to sleep and recover your strength
The Mother
Hello my child
The Mother
You've served us well but now it is time you serve him in his eternal glow
Vault Meat
Are you ready to meet Atom?
