The Ward Hints
Why won't anybody talk to me?
1 of 5: At first, you see many people moving quickly around the colony who won't have anything to do with you.
2 of 5: They are a closely-knit group. After one person breaks the ice, the others will slowly follow.
3 of 5: You will eventually find one person who will be congenial. When you do, the others will open up a bit at a time.
4 of 5: The first person I found who talked was a guy in the bathroom whom I learned was a Brazilian named Sebastian.
5 of 5: If you answered Ripper rudely at first, you'll be given toilet duty right away.
