conversations.value: For many years, the area affected by the Chernobyl disaster lay quiet, inhabited only by the increasingly mutated wildlife and the settlers who stubbornly refused to leave their homes. 
  
  Lately, though, things have changed. Perimeters have been fenced and are now patrolled. Checkpoints have appeared at all the roads leading in, and military vehicles rumble through at night. 
  
  Other things are happening, too. Other, stranger things. People are dying and no one will talk about it. Bodies are found, mauled and drained of blood. Guards shift uneasily at their posts, and soldiers swig from hidden flasks before going on night patrol. 
  
  When questioned, government officials claim that the containment measures are there for public safety. It's to keep the curious out, they say. But that was never a problem before, so why start now? 
  
  There's a reason it's called the Containment Zone, the locals whisper. 
  
  The soldiers aren't there to keep someone out. Oh, no. They're there to keep someone - or rather, someTHING - in...

conversations.value: Greetings,
  
  A thousand apologies for the opaque nature of your employment to date. I understand how frustrating this must be, but please bear with me. You have been chosen because you have a specific skill or mindset that I and my cohorts believe may be useful in the work that lies ahead of you.
  
  The task you have been hired to do is simple: We need to know what is happening inside the Containment Zone. Previous attempts of a military nature have been met and terminated with extreme prejudice. 
  
  This should not be a cause for alarm to you, however. Citizens may often walk, unharmed, where soldiers fear to enter. I hope that this will be the case for you. Nevertheless, I urge extreme caution. 
  
  DO NOT APPROACH the center of the Zone until you are confident that you know where you are, why you are going there, and, most importantly, how you are getting out. Knowledge is useless if it goes to the grave with you.
  
  I understand that you may need practical assistance for this job. Anyone entering the Zone is watched closely, so I am limited in what I can do. However, you are not completely on your own. A driver - Zoryana - will be waiting for you at the Dityatki Checkpoint at 10:00 am. Present her with a copy of this communiqué, and she will give you further instructions. 
  
  You must succeed; there is no other option. 
  
  Sincerely,
  Dr. Avignon
