Descrição
In the twenty-third century, Earth has been transformed by the ravages of climate change, and humanity grapples with the consequences of their past. Societal structures are redefined as people cling to the nostalgia of a pre-industrial paradise, yearning for a time of harmony with nature. Within this backdrop, a complex interplay of power, belief, and survival ignites tensions that could lead to catastrophe.
As factions emerge, each driven by their vision of a sustainable future, the line between progress and regression becomes blurred. The inhabitants navigate treacherous landscapes both literal and ideological, battling for resources and influence amidst a world on the brink of collapse. The struggle for dominance is not only a physical war but also a quiet, insidious conflict of ideas and ideals, where every decision shapes the fate of their world.
Amidst the chaos, characters' personal journeys unfold, revealing their hopes, fears, and transformations. They are forced to confront their own beliefs while grappling with the harsh realities of a planet that demands change. The narrative intertwines their stories, exploring themes of resilience, sacrifice, and the enduring human spirit in a world fraught with uncertainty.
