What's next?

An announcement is made.

"ATTENTION, ALL CIVILIANS. DUE TO THE LIMITED SPACE WITHIN MONUMENT STATION CAMP, WE CAN ONLY ADMIT THE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR SICK. WE ARE TRYING OUR BEST TO MAKE MORE ROOM, BUT YOU'LL HAVE TO BEAR WITH US."

So, these morons at ZERO built a camp that wasn't big enough and told everyone to go there anyway? Typical.

Everyone who isn't in the mob trying to get in to the camp seems to have elected to simply camp out right on the platform. Though it definitely doesn't seem as secure as being within the walls of the base, it's at least better than being out there on the streets. You can't help but think that even the slightest intrusion would leave this place a shambling, green heap.

You elect to simply count the blessings you have, and try to make yourself comfortable. And get something to eat, for starters.

Most of the platform is covered in bivouacs and the scattered possessions of survivors. There is a snack stand which presumably used to sell snacks and magazines to travellers, which has now been repurposed into a soup kitchen boiling soup on a portable stove and serving it up to the needy. You've never been homeless before, and you've certainly never eaten at a soup kitchen, but at the moment, you are one of the needy, and you could really use that soup.

What do you do?
