First Bunker Clan

First Bunker Clan is the group of people who settled inside the first Bunker (otherwise known as Wynn's Bunker) at the conclusion of Season 7 when the blood arrived.

The members of First Bunker Clan include Nobel Sovereign Sol Riverly, Sovereign Wynn Bell, Quill Bell, Elara Bell, Atlantis Beckett, Fenn Jakson, Liam Leighton, Harlow Blackwood, Izzy Kady Zora, Mabel, Dex, Katherine, and Joshua.

On the first evening upon moving into the Bunker, everyone slept in the open living area where a collective of mattresses were laid nearby each other. The next morning (the second day), Quill and Elara weren't coping at all and were anxious to have their own space so they didn't make everyone miserable or have to talk about anything when they weren't ready. Upon Wynn's request, Fenn moved the mattress from Elara's room into Wynn and Ares' room and set it in the centre of the (tiny) space, as Wynn's leg was severely injured from the incident prior to moving inside, and he was unable to do so himself. This allowed Wynn to give his siblings the space from everyone else they needed, whilst also ensuring that he was by their sides at all times - day and night.

Sol and Atlantis bunked together in Azha and Valarie's room - as Atlantis was there to comfort Sol through the believed, agonosing loss of Kodiak, as well the fear and emptiness that came with being seperated from Dreea and Chessca. Sol also took care of Atlantis who was especially mourning for Bas.

With no other choice but to step up, Fenn and Liam took care of the children - including Harlow (who they already knew) and Izzy - prepared meals, and ensured things began to ran smoothly. Sol - as the Noble Sovereign - forced herself to put on a brave face and take charge of things again on the third day, afraid that she would easily fall into a bottomless pit of despair over Kodiak if she didn't pull herself out fast.

However, it would take over a week for Wynn and his siblings to properly venture out of their room (other than bathroom breaks, and late-night ventures for food). Putting his own grief on hold for the sake of his siblings, Wynn managed to find time every day to check on Sol and the others and keep them updated on how Quill and Elara were processing everything. He also felt a profound duty to Harlow - who even slept in their room the first few nights - as they are a part of each other's family (and have known Harlow since he was born), and made sure that he was coping with the sudden loss of Bas. After seven days in the Bunker, Quill found the strength to break out of his depression - leaving Wynn surprised when he woke up in the morning to find Quill out of his bed, and sitting in the living area and talking with Fenn and Sol. Wynn sat down with Quill later in the day and talked about how he was feeling, and they navigated through Quill's confusion of losing Hannah amidst his great anger at her for what he did to their family. Quill tried to apologise to Wynn for everything that happened (but of course, Wynn objected to Quill having to apologise for anything) and explained that most of the part week hadn't been about losing Hannah, but about how close he had come to losing Wynn and Elara (after Ares), and the old wounds those fears had reopened. Although the first month had it's up and downs for Quill - and surprise moments which caught him off guard and threatened to undo all of his healing, it wasn't long before he returned to himself and made peace with what had happened on the ground. What helped him get through what had happened was knowing that he was safe inside the Bunker with his brother and sister, and there wasn't anything that could take them away from each other.

But Elara took a lot longer to come around. It took 11 days before she felt strong enough to say something - a side effect of the constant crying she had endured, and the dehyrdation from that. And even then, the only thing she managed to say was "thank you," to Wynn as he pulled her blanket over her after assuming she had fallen asleep, and she knew it must have been one of the hardest things in the world for him to have seen her and Quill so catatonic-like the past week. But after a couple more days passed and Elara showed no signs of ever leaving the room, Wynn locked them in and told her to sit up and listen to him. Elara was reluctant to, but eventually Wynn got his authority across and his sister olibged. They had a long conversation; Elara cried and Wynn was there through every single tear, reminding her that she wasn't facing the grief on her own. Quill also entered the room to provide his support and ensure his sister that they were all struggling to adapt to a world without Kodiak, but that it wouldn't ever be a world that he was forgotten in because he mattered too deeply to them all to ever be left behind. After finally communicating the grief that had captured her heart - and having two, loving brothers who valdiated every single one of her feelings - Elara miracously picked herself up and found the courage to leave the room, finally joining everyone in the living area. Wynn led her to the couch where she was met with an abundance of empathetic smiles and cautious words of comfort. She sat down next to Sol and before long, her head had fallen onto the Sovereign's shoulder - and Sol's own was resting atop hers, and her arm now wrapped around her. Neiter girl could say anything for a while, but it was enough to let Elara know that she wasn't alone and in a bittersweet way, Sol understood the depths of her pain.

The next day - with Elara continuing to come out of her room - she began wonder about the numerous children with them, and who they were, and what happened to their families. After learning that they were all inside because their families hadn't made it inside (due to the standoff against Hannah) and had been killed in the flood, Elara allowed herself to put her grief on hold for a moment to consider how they were doing, and if there was anything she could do to make sure none of them were feeling as hopeless as she was. It wasn't long before she began to notice the curious glances from a young girl - who always looked away when Elara caught her eye - and realised that she must have wondered where Elara had suddenly appeared from, and why she looked so sad. In an effort to distract herself, Elara began to wander into different rooms - knowing the young girl was following her, and pretending she had no idea. Eventually she ended up in her old room where the young girl finally followed her into, already captivated by the dusty snowglobe Elara was shaking in her hands. Elara offered it to her as a peacegiving and exhanged introductions, learning that the young girl was named Izzy. The two spent the rest of the day with each other - most of the time spent with Elara telling vivid, imaginary stories to Izzy (as a way to take her mind off of reality) and they became inseperable ever since.

It was the first time he had managed to ho
