Lamentation

The world didn't end in fire or end because of war. It ended when the ice broke.

From the cracks in the earth and the melted glaciers, things crawled...out-things that should've stayed buried. The storms came next, tearing apart cities and swallowing the sky.

Now, in what's left of Virginia, Johnathan and Denver walk the ruined roads, bound by circumstance and haunted by loss. Every town is a ghost, every night a gamble. But even as the world decays around them, something fragile keeps them moving-a flicker of hope, or maybe just the memory of it.

Because in a world that's forgotten warmth, survival isn't enough. You have to remember what it means to still feel human.
