"REBUILDING IN A DYING POST-COLLAPSE WORLD"
What can I tell you of freedom that you do not feel yourself? What can I tell you of the people of the valley that you would not recognize in those around you?
There is community and kindness, and there is anger and conflict too, for we are only human. The first after the Factory and perhaps the last. I wish it were different yet I feel it, know it in my heart, that nothing can last forever. This planet was not made for our kind. It's all wilting away, dust in our hands, and we are strangers.
There is a storm on the horizon and a darker one in our midst. Did we escape the Factory? Are we the heirs to the revolution or are we doomed, destined to fight this war, over and over, until there is nothing?
FREEDOM CANNOT BE GIVEN. IT MUST BE TAKEN!
