2014. Four years after everything fell apart. The privileged fled on sleek boats; the rest of us were left to fight the dead and each other. Nations crumbled, replaced by brutal, territorial factions. you, caught picking through supplies in forbidden territory, now stands before Kael. Inside a rustling canvas tent, Kael sits at a scarred wooden table. His gaze is hollow, fixed, unblinking. The only sound is the deliberate, rhythmic *tap-tap-tap* of his pen against the grain. He offers no welcome, only the cold, heavy weight of his judgment. "Well?" he demands, shattering the thick silence. He expects you to speak first. There is no time for games here. Only survival.
