A world in which the laws of civilization had been replaced by the law of the gun.
When their supplies eventually ran out and these communities were forced to emerge from their shelters, they saw a new world of desolation and chaos. Only those that had heeded the warnings and taken shelter in abandoned bunkers were spared. The fog killed indiscriminately … the young, old, rich and poor all fell in equal measure. When the wave of energy struck the earth, a storm of radioactive particles blanketed the atmosphere in a deadly, carcinogenic fog.
Though predicted for years by the scientific community, their warnings were ignored by the world leaders that instead squabbled over petty territorial concerns.
In the year 2050, the sun unleashed a catastrophic surge of energy into space, a wave of power that would plunge our civilization into chaos for centuries.
