Chapter 160: The Appointment

New Clark City, September 22nd, 2023. The dawn's light barely broke through the dense clouds, casting a somber glow over the headquarters of the survivor's camp. Inside, former Vice President Maria Santos prepared to convene an urgent meeting with the camp's council.

The atmosphere in the room was tense, charged with the weight of impending decisions. The council, comprised of individuals who had risen to the occasion in these trying times, gathered around a large, makeshift table littered with maps and documents. Each councilor bore the responsibility of overseeing different aspects of the camp's operations, their faces etched with the seriousness of their roles.

As Maria took her place at the head of the table, she surveyed the room, her eyes lingering on each councilor. They were a diverse group, united by circumstance and the shared goal of survival. Despite the uncertainty of their situation, there was a palpable sense of resolve among them.
