The year is 2052. Life for some seems to be fairly normal while others strongly disagree. While the world seems to not have changed at all in the past thirty years, if you look closely, everything is different. Life itself is not the same as it was. Despite the enhanced technology, amazing new discoveries, society's morals have changed. Or have they? Finn Rockwell is eighteen years old. He goes to school, makes fantastic grades, walks home, and escapes the world (or more like his personal world). Life for Finn is different than what it might look like for others. In such a hyper-driven, modern world, Finn finds simple things. However, what happens when WWIII beings and a draft sweeps the nation? What happens when Finn actually begins to unveil the secrets of his society? What happens when lives are put into danger and one must learn to survive? What happens when things aren't always what people have said they are? Simplicity can be hard to find... Finn's simple life might not be as minimal and clean as previously depicted. THIS STORY IS NOT COMPLETE.

Scarcity

By 2057, Earth will be a shadow of its former self. Decades of unbridled consumption and climate negligence have left the earth almost desolate. Water, oil, and lush land are relics of the past, valued more than money. All nations have collapsed under the weight of famine, disease, and internal upheaval, leaving only two superpowers: the United States and Russia. They were once reluctant allies but now find themselves embroiled in a deadly, global fight for the planet's few remaining resources. While the population fights to survive in enormous urban wastelands, both regimes use advanced technologies and covert tactics in a desperate push for absolute dominion. During the pandemonium, 17-year-old Caleb Morrow, a scrappy survivor from the ruins of Canada, is conscripted into the US military. Meanwhile, on the other side, Elena Morozova, an 18-year-old Russian conscript hailing from the ruins of Norway, ascends the ranks in the Russian military. As this conflict between the 2 last countries left spirals out of control, the past suddenly begins to rise from the ashes leaving questions to arise in the thoughts of many soldiers on both sides including Caleb and Elena that, if answered, reveals a dark and unsettling truth. Scarcity is a story of curiosity, critical thinking, corruption, and trust in a collapsing world. Make sure to keep your rifle tight as you explore a dark truth... *This story includes mature themes such as: war crimes and heavy violence* *Perspectives will continuously shift between characters in this story* *All pictures are not real sketches*
