The year is 2067 and the world is drowning. Streams have turned into rivers and continents are being swallowed by oceans. Global warming has been a problem on Earth for the past 50 years, but most people didn't pay any attention to the fact that the world was hurting. Ice caps were melting, sea levels were rising, drinking water became scarce and diseases started spreading which led to whole towns disappearing. Many families have been torn apart by natural disasters. The government has been controlling everything a family is allowed to have. Bottled water was rationed out to stores and it was a first come first serve game. Our president seemed like he has something to hide and the government is sure that the global warming will fix itself. Most people buy into that idea, but I know better. Only we can stop our planet from melting.

For what seems to be endless life cycles of seasons after seasons after seasons, the people of the planet, Caswuna, lived a respectable and healthy life. The changes the people of this world went through were not anything drastic. Everyone realized they had to take charge more than their usual everyday activities. Because of the global economic catastrophe, most, if not all forms of government, through the many nations, were silenced. Slowly but surely, the small groups found out how to save their water... by not washing clothes or using less of the clothing they had. They came to realize they had to wear something from elements of nature. Many but not all tribe members learned to live without the domination of materialism, like clothes. This story can speak to us today. We can't let greed, industrialism, and the simplest details of life dictate our personal, cultural, and national lives. We can live without these industrial standards if we want to hard enough. Don't let shiny objects be an obsession. It is never what we have or do that is the issue, but it could be how we live our own lives. Never live in our comfort zones. It will always destroy you in the end. This story is about a young adult female, Elenwen Aurora Shade on how she will enlighten and guide all the people of villagers around her to a wonderful future while going back to the era that nearly destroyed itself because of greed and power that has change a lot all around them.
