Ancillary Narrative 2

TITLE: The Super Awareness Show  ft. Anonymous Female Hero

CORRESPONDING MACRO-STORY BEAT: ENTER BIZARRO WORLD

SHORT STORY SYNOPSIS:
Act 1: The radio show starts off with an anonymous interview with a Gamma who tells the listeners about the troubles of living as a hero in the wasteland. The Gamma goes into detail how on a daily basis they have been tracked by multiple bounty hunters who do not want to turn them in, but instead use them to power their Gyrocycles. She describes the group as nomadic outlaws who scour the wasteland for fuel for their vehicles and they are the greatest fuel source of all time. As she goes past that she delves deeper into this bounty hunter group and eventually mentions the leader who is an enigmatic figure to outsiders of the wasteland and one who you would not want to mention in public.

Act 2: The "hero" reveals frightening information that actually this leader does not capture his victims for bounty or for resources, but instead enjoys eating them. They state they found this out after being captured and escaping their base camp and stumbling upon one of the leader's rituals. They reveal the bandits do not disclose this information as it would deem them "kill on sight" by Gammas and they need to appear as bounty hunter like as possible. Should anyone reveal this information would put them extremely high on the wastelanders hit list.

Act 3: After a few hours of talking about irrelevant subjects the audience is surprised with the sounds of explosions and gun firing. Soon after the sound of the leader's voice is heard throughout the podcast. "Sill' 'ero, 'id you tru tru tink you would git away wit dat infoo?" another voice is heard, this one more effeminate and lispy, "hold hold Grutez oh love. Dese old olds should be wakey.  We need dem tru tru." You here the faint voice of the hero end the podcast with "Sigma Lady, out."

ADDITIVE COMPREHENSION: You learn more about Grutez who is a prolific character in Wasteland sagas. You find out he is a homosexual and that he enjoys eating Gammas instead of using them for resources that was previously believed. You also get a look at what may have happened to Sigma Man.
