In the time that he was out, Tyler began to recall the times his uncle, whom he shared many good times with, told him stories about how the winter they lived in now had first begun.
"A long time ago, when people worried about the planet being too hot and had loads of technology, the event happened," his uncle would always start off. "With this technology, they were able to predict an impending disaster that would threaten all life on Earth, an approaching meteor. With this knowledge, the Ancients built a giant transparent net around the Earth to protect them from the meteor, but in their haste to save themselves, they did not realize what the ultimate outcome would be.
"Once the asteroid struck, the Ancients were happy to have avoided a catastrophe and began to celebrate. For a hundred years or so all was well, but once that time was over, realization came and smacked them in the face."
Author's note: Totally lied about this being long, but I decided to split this up throughout the book to keep it interesting.
