EP10: Promises | The Dusty Signal - A Fallout 4 Fan Fiction Audio Drama

"Slow is fast..." A Fallout 4 Fan Fiction Audio Drama Episode Name: Promises November 1, 2287 - Log 010 Day Ten - Late Evening Nate was heading to Diamond City. Then Preston Garvey stopped him at the gate. One detour. Two settlers farming irradiated soil on nothing but stubbornness and fading hope. A raider camp that never saw him coming. Rounds expended — zero. But this episode isn't really about the mission. It's about what Nate finally admits out loud — that the Deathclaw scared him. And what that admission says about the kind of man he's becoming. Ten days out of the vault. He has settlements, allies, a growing network, and a dog that already died for him once. Diamond City tomorrow. The search for Shaun begins in earnest. CREATIVE NOTES: Creative license was used in this episode. I am aware that the Raiders are in the Corvega plant in the Fallout 4 game, I changed their location for story and character development... I am also aware that there is no barn at Tenpines Bluff, and they are only growing Tato plants there... Again, creative license for the story I was telling, I apologize to all hardcore lore fans. - Garrick About The Dusty Signal The Dusty Signal is a Fallout 4 fan fiction audio drama.

"I'm taking you home, Nora." A Fallout 4 Fan Fiction Audio Drama Episode Name: Buried October 31th, 2287 - Log 009 Day Nine - Late Evening Five days of silence. Then this. Nate goes back to the vault one last time... for a weapon, and for something he wasn't ready to face. What he carries out changes everything. This is the episode where grief gets a place to live. Where a wedding ring comes off for all the right reasons. And where a man buries his wife under the only tree she ever loved... with broken ribs, a stranger's blanket, and a dog who never left his side. He came out of that vault with nothing. He's leaving Sanctuary Hills with a mission. Diamond City. Shaun... is alive. About The Dusty Signal The Dusty Signal is a Fallout 4 fan fiction audio drama.

What starts as an accidental recording drops you directly into the fight — no setup, no warning, just Nate Campbell, a Deathclaw, and a dog who refused to run. The second tape is quieter. Much quieter. Nate's back at Forward Base Alpha, battered, barely remembering how he got there, with broken ribs and a power armor suit that's done for now. He's alive. That's about all he's got.
