   Summary

   The Courier had won. She survived a brush with death in the Goodsprings Cemetary, took Hoover Dam from both the NCR and the broken remains of Caesar's Legion, and usurped Robert House as the ruler of New Vegas with an army of Securitrons behind her. But thrones are dangerous places: the NCR doesn't forget traitors, and the threat of the Legion persists as they rebuild their strength beyond the Colorado River once again. Motivated to risk everything, Joan travels east through Legion territory, to chase a rumor of synthetic human beings that could possibly protect New Vegas forever... if she can bring them, too, under her control.

   But, before she goes to Boston, she goes to Zion--to inform the Legion's former Malpais Legate of her victor over Caesar. This, more than anything, will be the most fateful decision of her life.

   By many, MANY requests, here is LtB, reuploaded, unedited and unchanged from its original posting. I hope you enjoy it!
