I found this mysterious cave while wandering through the northeastern part of the Savage Divide. Now, normally I avoid caves like a feral ghoul avoids breathmints, but I hadn’t found a good loot stash for a while. For me, greed and caution run in an inverse relationship–like sex appeal and fear of crazy. I never said I was a stable fellow, so make of that what you will. In any event, the cave was crazy, what with the suicidal Blood Eagles and secret keypad locked door leading god knows where. It was sexy too, if your kink is skewered mirelurk queen corpses and rotting mirelurk bits… But there was a bit of a real-world payoff. I scavenged 3 Combat Shotguns (one automatic), an Automatic Combat Rifle, a Marksman’s Sniper Rifle, one Stealth Boy, a three-star Assassin’s Botsmith Chest Piece, and a Short Laser Pistol. Plus the cave tunnels were full of brain and glowing fungus. Oh! There was one cap stash, but I cleaned that out. No mystery there, friends.
