Open on wiki ↗
event  Crates (Frozen Sewer) ·  Events (all zones)
In a corner you find a rat man looking through some crates, when he sees you, he says: ″Huh... ho... don't hurt me! I'm alive! I'm alive! or at least for the moment... I had to take a chance and get out of the palisade... We've run out of food and we're not going to last long. But there's nothing left here, I only found an old mysterious key and little else. Don't you have some food for me?″
