When They Fell

For ninety-seven years, The Grounders have struggled to survive. Some, more than others, but every day reveals a threat of extinction.

The Twelve Clans were not always so. Once upon a time they were all one. Born from the first survivors. But because they were still human, the inevitable fall happened.

Wars within wars within people who were supposed to understand each other. One clan became twelve. More lives were lost in an attempt to unite until finally - common enemies won out.

But when warriors become complacent with the known, with the common enemy, there is comfort. There is understanding.
It is when something unexpected happens that everything falls out of balance. The sky shifts. The sun sets differently.

One little change starts a chain of events that causes a domino effect on all involved. 



The day the Sky People fell was the day everything changed.
