A story for AALBC part 4

[richardmurray]

I am part of a writing community outside AALBC but a recent challenge made me consider using it to push a story in AALBC.  This is the scenario

 

SCENARIO

Habshi 89 was tasked by a Leader to send a message to another in an Urban Command outside, risking the Untouchables (mutant humans/plants/insects/fish) + Roamers outside. A logister confirms the farming can survive his absence. His wife, Santos 45 is already a Rearer to another and Habshi 89 will be on his journey so another , Hippo 21, will be the Rearer to their eldest male child. The protagonist meets in the antagonistic environment outside potential antagonist: a Courier looking to make his utility a failure, a Courier acting as a Rearer to a child ( unprotected ) acting as an Initiate, a Roamer merry and kind who has a secret life in the environment, a Mutant Human trying to restart their life after a tragedy, a mutant girl who can swim in water, plus various others, through various trials to reach the other Urban Command in the Untouchable World.
