Fine. You people want to play that way?

Enjoy educating newcomers by yourselves. I'm done helping you.

[And, true to his word, he won't be handing out any more letters, at least for the moment. Explain what he's talking about? Why in the world would he do that? Obviously the actions of maybe three people is enough for him to throw a tantrum over the phone lines.]

[Anyone who might see Dist walking through the streets can see that he's an absolute wreck. Not emotionally -- his expression is uncharacteristically stony. It's his face that's busted up, bruised across his cheek and mouth and his left eye patched over. Well, the place where his left eye should be, but that's not exactly visible. It'd happened a couple of days ago, but that's not quite long enough to heal fully, so for now he's just combed his hair forward a bit in an attempt to cover it all up.

He does seem to have a destination in mind, though, as he's walking particularly quickly.]

You're...Dist the Rose?

If that's the case then I need to thank you. I first arrived in Mayfield around a week ago and someone passed me your letter. It really helped to bring me up to speed on what this town is, and what it can do to us. While it's true that I had a lot of other help, the letter was one of the first that helped to clarify the situation, and that allowed me to keep a calm head during the zombie outbreak.

Thank you very much Mr Dist. I really appreciated it.

(She doesn't know the circumstances of why he's stopped giving them out, or why he's so angry, but she can bet it had to do with the fact that he looks like he was beaten up pretty badly.)
