Heading back to the Powder Ganger Base

After the raid on the small caravan the Powder Gangers headed back with all the loot they could carry. Tents, blankets, pots, pans, tools, anything that took difficulty to reproduce in the post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Madeline led her Powder Gangers back safely to the Powder Ganger's prison fortress. Eddie was leaving for a raid on some unfortunate souls even as Madeline's crew came in.

"Looks like you got a good haul." Eddie said, looking over the loot carried by the Powder Gangers. Noting the pretty blonde woman among them.

"Who knows. Probably NCR, maybe some raiders. Doubt its Khans but could be some random group. The roads just aren't safe these days." Tack grinned at his morbid humor.

"I guess we will find out." Madeline said. "We are leaving at sun-up."
