Out There

There is only one village left. All the others were prone to destruction. The war was long and scarring. Everyone fought, but nobody won. Bombs were dropped, guns were fired, until no one remained. Except for a small group of people who hid away in the Nebraska prairies. They grew and re populated after the deadly war was over. A small village sprouted and streets began to fill, but the world was still small. Still only one village remained. For Cameron, there was no hope of building a new world.
