On December 21, 2012, rumors that the world was about to end were everywhere. But nothing happened that day: no natural disasters, no man-made catastrophes. Still, one girl saw a world unlike anyone else’s.
That night, she climbed to the mountaintop with her camera. At midnight, she witnessed a spectacular meteor shower. Its eerie blue flames tore through the darkness, ripped open the sky, and twisted time and space.
In 2112, during the spring of the twenty-second century, the Mayan prophecy was still a favorite topic of conversation over meals. At least, they had time for one more cup of coffee before the world ended.
“Hey, Wu Wei, what do you think? Does the end of the world really exist?”
The girl who had been addressed looked up. Eerie blue light reflected in her dark eyes. She clasped her hands and slowly managed a smile.
“Maybe...”
“Maybe we died a hundred years ago?”

# Not quite your typical post-apocalyptic road story. Set in the same series as Blessing. A full-on XP project that jumps between flashbacks, reverse chronology, and straight-up storytelling. There are male and female villains, comic relief, people who hand out equipment and information, and even people who offer themselves to the protagonist. The plot always prioritizes the protagonist.
# Still melodramatic, still rambling, still a hodgepodge of mythology, still writing whatever comes to mind.
Theme: Exploration and the pursuit of knowledge
Seriously, this isn't a flashback story about rebirth, that's very rare and delicious 😆
