Escaping The Void

Prologue:

It has been over a century since the takeover by Marcellus Greeves. The world has been mostly destroyed and neglected, due to warfare. All that remains populated is the dictated region of Nova Era, in a region once known as North America.
Since Greeves, there have been several dictators. Alexander Thorne, now oversees everything, and everyone. He dictates from his palace, in an unknown location.
Fifteen years after the takeover, children started to disappear. No one knew to where, or why; but soon they learned. Those taken have signs of a special ability or advanced intelligence, known amongst the people as a sygil. Thorne is obsessed with finding these children, and has them taken to a facility known as The Void.
The Void's location is uncertain, as no one has ever returned home after being taken. Once there, children are taught and trained to become new generations of Enforcers, to ensure the reign of dictators.
