A progressive philosophical treatise told through a provocative, modernly-relevant, post-apocalyptic tale.Accelerating climate change pushed the planet into the environmental instability, resource scarcity, perpetual natural disasters and political turmoil precipitating World War Three. In this world of dissolving governments, disbanding law enforcement and propagandist warfare for the surviving hearts and minds of humankind, those unwilling to surrender their power rely upon their technological advantage to create and propagate the Avant Garde, a nanobot army murdering millions and threatening to end life on Earth.Out of necessity, most of the world’s survivors have joined communities formed along ideological lines, defending one-another from outsiders whilst continually keeping watch for signs of a virulent, invisible enemy common to all. Fighting through this fractured humanity clinging to the dwindling resources of a dying planet, one group of survivors sets out to eliminate the Avant Garde before it’s too late. From what remains of once resplendent Silver Falls State Park outside of Salem to the decimation of downtown Portland, philosophical Kato and company encounter a competing assortment of clans with contradicting ideas of salvation, many of whom would rather see them dead than permit them to continue on their quest for the sake of all.
