In a somewhat dystopian future, where humanity has been ravaged by monsters and any human life is either hanging on by a thread in a settlement, or inside a giant building, never to see the light of day again, a boy wakes up with no memories.

He's taken to a place in a big underground building, full of people like him. He meets some friends, maybe a rival, but he feels trapped. He yearns for a day where he can explore the world, and he finds the job that will be perfect for him, but there's a catch.

This job is a military job, called the Wanderers, and they're not too keen on the idea of letting someone who claims to have no memories join them.

Will this boy's dream become a reality? Or is he destined to rot away underground?
Only time will tell the fate of this boy.


*BEFORE YOU READ* Please be aware that this is technically a rough draft, and also that I'm begging for any type of critique you can find on this. I really want to improve my skill as a writer and make this story as enjoyable as I can make it, and one way to do that is to take critiques! This is also one book in a planned trilogy. I do not have an update schedule planned, but I try to write at least 300 words a day.

A long journey that I literally walked through the fire to save. It was the one thing I managed to save when my house burned to the ground a year ago. I'm putting it out here for the first time for people to read. Please let me know what you think and thank you for taking the time. Hopefully we'll continue to enjoy this journey together. This is a tale of Slade, a young boy who was convinced his life didn't matter. He lives in a massive empire that was carved out of hundreds of frightened villages centuries ago during the Long Night. Now what was once an army of adventurers and guild members is now one of the greatest forces in the world. But strange forces seek to undo all of this when the Withered Hand unleashes a sleeping sickness that deprives of waking child of tomorrow. Slade and his friends are the only ones that manage to escape the clutches of the Nightmare King. Now, with the help of the ancient wizard Rune, they will travel the Empire, enlisting the aid of the sage Guilds, each keepers of a different type of knowledge and skill, to find a way to wake the children of the Empire once again. *Each of the 4 guilds has a special focus of knowledge. They are: The Engineers: Designers and builders of machinery The Sorcerers: The keepers of the arcane and magic The Alchemists: The workers of change and transmutation, seeing what can be changed from one element to the next The Apothecaries: Keepers of the body. Makers of tinctures, salves, potions and other remedy to ailments of the body and mind.

This is a fan fiction based on the last of us game the time line of the story takes place at the end of the game and different location (sorta). I'm also going to do that thing that the game did with the seasons,the whole game is technically a year. If you watch game play you'll know what I'm talking about. This story may contain very similar events to the game (because I not the best with my own ideas) so I want give as much credit to naughty dog and the story developers of the game and the creators or artists of the covers of most of the story parts and maybe music, because I don't own them and to be honest the game itself gave me some ideas, and inspired me to make this story. oh I'm not sure if this is a good Idea but the characters in the story are me and my friends but only first names I don't wanna give out last names if that is too much and by the way not all of the characters are my friends I made a couple of them up. Just wanted to put my self in the action. I'll probably make a sequel to this story so hope you like it. This is sort of a mature audience​ type of story, but there is not going to that much romance...well there is actually, but don't expect it to be all that this story has to offer. Plus the cover might be a little off since Wattpad covers isn't working with me right for some reason. The story is basically a large group of teenagers are trying to survive in a world that had been left in ruins for twenty years with violent zombified creatures and bandits,cannibales etc. PS this is my first book on Wattpad,so really hope you like. (I'm not perfect. Basically saying)
