Humanity took a blow as the Great War, driven from panicked hunger for resources and crazed drive for power, obliterated the Earth, as hundreds of atom bombs tore apart the planet. However, underground vaults held the last remains of the human race. The vaults each held one goal, some to keep humanity alive, and some to experiment on them like animals. In Vault 46, the residents were kept safe by Vault-Tec and seemingly unharmed by experimentation, until after 170 years in the vault, the residents are told by a mysterious radio call that the outside had turned back to what it had been before the war. Young dweller Zech Taylor was the first to be sent out in search of the world promised by the radio call, but as war had brought, a cruel world separated Zech from his cozy vault life into a wasteland brought by the mistakes of the human race. His mission becomes more than a recon, as more lies in the atom bleached land of post-war Missouri, and his journey in the wastes shows it's true colors, as Zech explores in search of a smeared mission.

The Last Vault
In a future where Earth has been "restored" to a pristine natural state, humanity has been exiled to orbiting stations and distant colonies. The wealthy elites, known derisively as the Toff, have claimed Earth's beauty as their own private trophy, dismantling every human-made structure and hiding Earth's legacy under lock and key. Forbidden and off-limits to all but a select few, the planet has become a myth, a dream, and for some, an obsession. Callen is a deliveryman scraping by in the underbelly of Earth 2, a gleaming satellite that serves as both a counterweight to Earth's space elevator and a paradise for the Toff. His odd jobs bring him close to their world but never let him touch it. One job takes him to the Terminal Village, a medieval-style settlement at the base of the space elevator, where he learns of a tantalizing rumor: a hidden vault deep in the Rocky Mountains, filled with priceless relics from Earth's past. Driven by desperation and a growing defiance against the Toff's control, Callen begins piecing together fragments of truth about the vault. To reach it, he must navigate Earth's untouched wilderness, avoid detection, and unravel the secrets the elites have buried. But the deeper he delves, the more dangerous his journey becomes-and the more he realizes the vault's treasures might hold more than wealth. They could hold humanity's forgotten history... or its final undoing. In this gripping blend of dystopian adventure and treasure-hunting intrigue, The Last Vault explores the meaning of ownership, legacy, and the lengths we'll go to reclaim what was lost. Perfect for fans of speculative fiction and high-stakes heists, this is a story of forbidden worlds and the resilience of those who refuse to be forgotten.Complete
