While the Fields of Elysium had chosen to withdraw their agents from New Reno, for reasons which nobody seemed to quite understand. The Remnant had begun making their own moves. Zane had been confirmed as a target marked for death. An enemy of America, or at least that is how they perceived him to be.
The man had quite literally occupied a property the Remnant believed to rightfully belong to them, despite it originally being the private bunker of a State Governor. And on top of this, he had killed the scouts sent by the Remnant to investigate this matter.
To put it simply, those old fools who still considered themselves in charge of the former territory of the United States now wanted Zane dead. But he was just one of many targets marked for death within the Wasteland. After all, there were many people who refused to recognize the authority of the Remnant over the lands they used to rule prior to the apocalypse.
