Interactions
Harold brings the player character here during the opening scene.

Layout
This location consists of a dozen houses and a truck stop. Instead of gas tanks, there are feeding troughs, that sort of thing. The north and south roads the player cannot go yet. And the east gate can be opened when he talks to Stella, the truck stop owner.

Quests
When asked about the Jackals, she points the player into the junkyard to the east. Seems the Jackals invaded there awhile ago, looking for parts to scavenge. but beware: there are "giant naked rats that are ugly as sin" out there. What are they, you ask. Why, giant naked molerats, of course.


 * Once inside, he finds a Jackal holed up in a shed with 10 molerats outside. After much threatening, the raider tells the player that the Jackals are heading south. They were supposed to pick up some slaves down in Lubbock.
 * Player must also find a gearshift for the pink car. When he does, he can get out of town.
