Introduction: Earth's civilizations fell centuries ago.  The human race is on the brink of extinction, forming tribes where metropolis' once stood, returning to hunter-gatherers, loosing the very idea of farming.  Can humanity return from this centuries long dark age, or will they fall into true extinction?-----------------------------A/N:  I was asked about levels and mechanics for this story, and although I am using a Table-Top method to keep things interesting, that information is/will not be part of the narrative, as none of the characters think in terms of 'levels'.  The system I am using was developed by Fantasy Flight Games for Anima: Beyond Fantasy.  Using this system, in my opinion, adds a sense of constant danger.  I have played several sessions with lvl 50-55 characters and been handed by backside by lvl 1 enemies.  I'm using this method solely to keep the characters from being '眉ber War Monkey'Hope you're enjoying this as much as I'm writing....
