"Yeh, well, I heard they also strapped somebody to a pole and killed the heck outta 'im for breaking the law."
"If it ain't the 'splodin train, its a case of the sick, and if it ain't that, you get attacked knocked around by an earthquake and attacked by giant chickens. That town is cursed."
"The Roadhouse got a really real door now!"
"The quaking and fire burping is bad this year. Cinders been comin' out of the mine now too. Bout time for them to go crack that thing open and settle this all down, ain't it?"
"Ain't rover mating season over yet? Those scarves are pairing up all over the place!"
"Is it ever really over with those people?"
"There's been a buncha thievin' going on in Steel Horse. Probably all those new garbage folk rollin' in."
"What the hell are all those guys in cloaks about? One walks around sniffing like he's lookin' fer dinner and the other ones watch ya when you pee. It ain't right."

“The local brewers and cooks are getting better by leaps and bounds, saved our asses last trade when the horde came roll’n though.”
“That Marshal Sears fella has been awful shifty lately… even more full of himself that usual. Heard him mumbling ‘the priest says I’m, doing the right thing’. That’s pretty weird if you ask me.”
“I heard they haven’t seen the Lemon girl in 3 days, poor Jackie’s out of her mind with worry. Don’t tell her this… it’ll only break her heart… but I saw some nasty shadows leaving that camp”
“I thought those navy psions kept the horde at bay…. Apparently it only grew…. Figures. Those damn psions draw zed like a good lamp draws moths.”
