Survivors are forced to adapt to the harsh conditions of their new reality: a place where erosion floats in on a breeze, and ceasing to exist comes with a deceptively joyous capitulation. Overcoming deeply rooted fears, they try to forge another world, uniting with those who continue to fight the darker urges that can emerge when a society must rebuild. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWill the couple be able to survive, make alliances with others, and give birth to a new generation?
