After a day of walking I made it to the outskirts of the city and found a small little community. They talk of a faction I guess would call it, called the "Institute" and how they abduct people and replace them with these robots called synths. It appears that this "Institute" may be the boogie man of the Boston area.
"Hey new guy what kind of robot is that anyway?" I looked over to see a middle aged man studying T5. "It's an Eye-Bot surely you've seen them they were everywhere just south of here." "Nope, not here we see mostly protectron units and man are they an annoyance." "What's it for anyway." "Mostly recon but I've customized this one to be a mobile camera as well as a companion to capture my adventures." "So like a journal, right?" "Yeah a really expensive and deadly journal."
This guy really hasn't seen an Eye-Bot before? Back in D.C. they were all over the place. I figured they were all over the wasteland strange. "You ain't one of them Institute spies are you?" "Me? No, I've never even heard of them before today." "We'll I'd watch your back they take whoever they want and replace them over night with them cyborg people." "You mean synths?" " YEAH THEM! Those bastards all cozy in their labs trying to make the Commonwealth miserable." "Can you really judge them so harshly?" "Excuse me?!" "Well I mean has anyone even seen the Institute?" "Well no but..." "have you talked to anyone from there?" "Uh no..." "Then how do you know their intentions are evil?" "Everyone knows their evil just look at what they do to people!!" "Replacing people is wrong I won't deny that but have you ever thought that they do what they do for the betterment of the wasteland??" "You're one of them ain't ya?!!" *sigh* "No I'm not one of the Institute synths." "That's what a synth could say!" "I think I need to get going." "Don't you come back here either if you do then I'll shoot you myself!" "Have a nice life."
Man these people and their boogie man I knew people didn't like the Enclave but this is a bit much. What if they really are taking people to try and help the Commonwealth?? Is it really so bad to try and help in the only way you know how when all else fails....
I travel led a little farther into the city and dispatched some raider group and found a nice place to rest for the night.
