The Vast Ripeness

Doug and Gemma are just two people in a vast world. The year seems to be about 3070 something, as people stopped tracking time long ago. There is something missing in nature that nobody on earth, or maybe beyond knows about. A secret that nobody knows about. Something locked deep. There is a small fairy tale, told in secrets, from long ago. The tale tells of a time where people flourished, people were strong, Love was easy, and reproduction was the norm. Such old folklore can't be true. Can it?
