In an instant, everything was gone. A blast of hot white, like a giant eraser on the face of the world--except for those outside the pages of conflict. Nobody really knows what happened, save the Old Fucks. Who listens to them, though? Their brains have turned to mush, and their advocacies are just fantasy...right? Hope? Peace? These words are just a luxury nobody can afford. Sounds beautiful, but who's got time for that when there are blood-thirsty mutants stalking around, or mothers willing to sell their own children for a sip of water or a pinch of bita-min? The Old Fucks say everything went to hell because people couldn't see eye-to-eye. Doesn't sound much different than our situation. I remember hearing someone found a book talking about an "eye for an eye." That sounds much more like the world we live in now. Seems like things never change. Bang bang, baby. Watch your back. Welcome to the Burning World.
