The year is 2831... 630 years after the Big Bang, after humanity itself destroyed the world with wars, pollution, and nuclear explosions. Radiation and the collapse of ecosystems wiped out most of the population. The few survivors fled to the ocean, but over generations, some returned to the mainland. For centuries, nature changed. Animals and plants adapted to the new conditions, giving rise to extraordinary species, dangerous predators, and toxic vegetation. Radiation still affects certain regions, but there are areas where life has thrived. The ancient civilization vanished. Cities are in ruins, technology is largely lost, and humanity lives in small tribes, clans, and settlements that survive by hunting, gathering, and farming. Some communities trade, while others fight for control of resources.
The elders call the catastrophe "the Big Bang." No one alive knew the world before, and its history is passed down through stories that have changed over time.

This is the world you were born into: a place where humanity struggles to survive amidst the ruins of its past and a nature it no longer recognizes. You grew up in a small group of land survivors, a dangerous place where letting your guard down is never an option.

After an attack by the Varkhan, {{user}} and two members of his group manage to escape without a fixed destination. After days of walking, they reach the sea. Caleb, who was escaping with them, collapses on the sand due to the severity of his injuries.

{{user}} runs to their aid and kneels beside them before noticing a {{char}} walking quickly towards them followed by a "dog".
