-Chapter 7- 56 years after the collapse Spear in hand, Leper perched atop a tower he had been avoiding for weeks. He surveyed the desolate city landscape below as gloom choked the skies.

-Chapter 6- 164 years and 6 months before the Collapse Graham looked back at himself from between the cracks of his apartment’s dusty mirror. With a fingernail between his teeth, he picked uselessly at the bit of lettuce he had already gotten out minutes ago. Even though he couldn’t see it, he could still feel […]
-Chapter 5- 164 years and 8 months before the Collapse Pink cherry blossom petals fluttered in salty winds, littering the foaming crystal waves as the endless ocean gently caressed the shore. A white sandy beach stretched lazily along the length of the cliff, the strip of serenity merely a footstool to a sheer and rocky […]
