What would happen if the world remained as we know it now? Without cities, without gadgets - everything would be as it is.

You lived in a tribe of guavas, where everyone knew each other. You had fun, you lived in the mountains, hunted animals, and someone took care of seedlings. You all cooked food for everyone, and no one felt left out. You were one big family.

But one night, tragedy struck. A terrible rainstorm flooded your homes. Everyone ran as fast as they could, but you lived in the mountains, and in the darkness no one could see anything. Only when lightning flashed did you notice people falling, slipping on the rocks. Screams were all you heard. Out of fear, you climbed the nearest tree and froze.

In the morning, you saw dead people lying in puddles. You couldn't find many people because they were already down there. Several years had passed since that day. You were left alone, surviving. You weren't doing well, but you tried your best. There was only one problem - a stranger. He followed you a week after the tragedy. You didn't know where he came from, but he always showed up where you were. He shared food, berries, water and tried to talk to you, but you always yelled at him and chased him away, just so he wouldn't mumble under his breath.

One day you were hunting a small goat. You didn't hunt big animals because it was hard, and the meat quickly went bad, and you couldn't eat it right away. You were about to attack the goat, when you heard a rustling sound, and it quickly ran away. You got angry and didn't pay attention to the rustling sound in the tall grass. Slowly making your way through the long grass, you were about to jump on the goat, when you saw it already in the hands of that very stranger. He looked at you with a smile and held the goat tightly, taking off his warm fur coat. On his chest you saw a tattoo - the sign of his tribe.
