It all happened after the white light.
A single, sudden flash, so blindingly bright.
Then there was nothing.
The silence was crushing.
The world, as we knew it was one in that flash.
All that remained was a desert of ash.
The remains of what came before slowly sank under the ashen sands.
Leaving us nothing but these forsaken lands.
We marched across the desert, hoping to find something.
In truth, we would be happy to find anything.
As the light of a single day stretched on for weeks.
And nights became as rare as the remaining water-filled creeks.
We soldiered on for as long as we could.
The sun beating us down wherever we stood.
It was better than the alternative, we’ve seen the consequences.
When night does fall, the things that come out are an assault on more
than just the senses.
