Origins twc-2
Kyle West
Ragnarok was only the beginning. Buried in Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado, is the massive Bunker One. Long conquered by the spawn of the xenovirus, it is now the mission of Alex Keener, Samuel Neth, and Makara Angel to find the fallen Bunker, or die trying. Contained within are the mysterious Black Files, which may be the key to stopping the xenovirus before it is too late. But one thousand miles of post-apocalyptic desert stand between the team and their goal, and human hostiles and killer dust storms are the least of their worries. They must make it to Bunker One before the winter snows bury it… and before anyone else can claim the Black Files as their own. For growing in the south in the wake of the expanding Blights is the mysterious Empire, who will stop at nothing to secure the Bunkers’ resources, technology, and information… and Bunker One is at the top of their list. And in the Great Blight, the monsters get bigger. Much, much bigger.

Darkness

And it may also be that the denizens of Bunker 84, known as "The Community," are not as isolated from the events of the Wasteland as it first appears.
