The Poisoner's Last Ride: A Post-Apocalyptic Love Story

Found in Apt. 1724, Osaka Tower Block, Southwest City 3:

Hello, Tenant,

Welcome to what used to be our apartment. If you intend to read on, then you should know the truth about what happened to us.

The annotated version: We couldn't take living here anymore. We've been "Sector Auditors" (yes, Poisoners) for Southwest City 3 for some time now, and while our lifestyle has undeniably been better than the average Citizen's, when you've a permanent target on your back due to your job, the only way you can survive on your terms is by living on the run out in the Wastes, and we're willing to risk it, even if it means the end of our creature comforts...

...and even if it challenges our relationship with each other.

So enjoy your time here while you still have it. We don't envy you whatsoever.

In all sincerity,

S&S
Oct. 15th, Year 72 Post Res.

P.S. We've left a little bit of (real) cake in the fridge. Thought it would be nice to leave some for the new Tenant. Enjoy!
