The Lost Farlands

The War, 4 Years Ago - Part 1

Scene 2.0 - Opening Sequence

As the window opened, the darkness gave way to a blinding light, waking Sen up from her dreams. Before her, an expansive panorama of the new society that had rebuilt itself stretched beyond the horizon. Towering structures and buildings reached towards the sky, forming a stunning skyline against the backdrop of a vibrant city. The streets below teemed with life, a tapestry of individuals immersed in their daily routines.

The symphony of the crowded city filled Sen's ears. Conversations mingled with the sounds of footsteps, laughter mixed with the hum of activity. It was a harmonious symphony, an orchestra of humanity working together. Children's joyful laughter echoed through the air, a testament to their carefree spirits amidst the backdrop of progress and hope.

In the streets below, a vibrant view of humanity being together. Neighbors exchanged greetings and smiles. Acts of kindness and assistances into the daily life, a reflection of the unity that filled the complex. It was a place where helping hands were extended without hesitation.

The air carried scents of fresh coffee, blooming flowers, and the aroma of different cuisines. Small cafes and restaurants filled the streets, their outdoor seating areas crowded with conversations and laughter. Friends gathered around tables, sharing stories of success and aspirations, their voices filled with hope and determination. Each sip of coffee, each bite of food, symbolized nourishment not only for the body but also for the spirit. The beautiful view of the entire cityscape bonding into one single community without anyone being excluded was seen.

Sen stood and took a deep breath, as her gaze were focused in the vibrant community before her. The warmth of the sunlight bathed her face, a gentle touch of temperature that awakened a renewed sense of hope within her. It was a sight she had never imagined possible, a stark contrast to the nightmares she had endured. The challenges she had faced had prepared her for this very moment, filling her with a determination to contribute to the restoration of a society that was once destroyed by disaster.

Unbeknownst to Sen, beyond the Twin Towers Complex, trials and tests awaited her. But armed with newfound resilience and unwavering spirit, she was prepared to face whatever challenges lay ahead. The view from the window had become more than a scene. It had become a symbol of resilience and the boundless potential for rebirth and growth. In Sen's heart burned the unwavering belief that, even amidst the ruins, a brighter future could be forged. Sen steps away from the window and wakes Ren and Alfred up, impatient to explore the complex."Come on, wake up you two, you guys won't believe what's out there. It's like a whole different world. I mean take a look at the window view. This is awesome!" said Sen as she tried shaking Ren out of her slumber.

"Five more minutes..." said Ren half-unconscious, as the asleep Ren turned her body the other way. "School is starting in an hour, I can prepare myself fast." As she continues to fall in a deep sleep again for the fifth time.

"This lazy son of a b*tch... come on!!" she exclaimed with an upset face. "Just wake up and see for yourself" she said, as she carries Ren over to the window.

The blinding light finally wakes Ren from her deep slumber, causing her to squint against its intensity as her eyes struggle to adjust. Eventually, her vision slowly adapts to the amazing scene before her, revealing a breathtaking panorama that leaves her utterly astonished to the point where she jumped like a happy little kid. What unfolds is a beautiful view, filled with vibrant crowds, a clean environment, and towering skyscrapers that seem to stretch endlessly into the sky. A utopia that has always entered her dreams in every night.

"Hey... Sen, remember when we used to dream about a place like this?" She slowly smiles and looks toward Sen "I guess our dream has now been fulfilled huh?" said Ren while grinning.With little to no warning, a familiar voice was suddenly heard through both of the siblings' ears.
