When the world outside is burning down around you, it’s comforting to know you have a safe place to go. Not everyone in the world has such a place. People retreat into their suburban cocoons to collapse from the mental destruction. Cities teem with souls floating down hallways to surrender to unconsciousness in their colorless cubicles.
But…
Some characters maze their way through the wires of disconnected humanity to find the old eclectic power strips where their plug perfectly fits amongth the others. When they return from the desolation of the greater societal wasteland, there’s a spark; connection.
In that connections, they are reminded that though things may grow dark, there is a light. There is always hope.
And in The Emberlaine, there is hope to spare; which is good because these characters need it.
