2054 – The Great Convergence

In the annals of future history, a chapter unfolds marked by enigmatic events – the era of the Great Convergence in the year 2054. It was a time when the boundaries between realities blurred, ushering in fantastical beings from distant dimensions to tread upon the soil of a technologically advanced world. The catalyst for this extraordinary occurrence lay in the culmination of advanced scientific endeavors coupled with unforeseen consequences.

Across the globe, scientists delved into uncharted realms of quantum mechanics and experimental physics, pushing the boundaries of human understanding. Their relentless pursuit of knowledge led to the development of groundbreaking technologies, including quantum destabilizers and dimension-warping devices. Yet, in their hubris, they unwittingly disrupted the fabric of space-time, creating fractures that bridged the gap between worlds.

Through these fractures, beings of otherworldly origin traversed the thresholds, their presence both awe-inspiring and unsettling. Among them were entities of pure energy, beings of incomprehensible form, and echoes of ancient civilizations long thought lost to the annals of time.

As humanity grappled with the implications of the Great Convergence, a new era of scientific inquiry and exploration dawned. Scholars and researchers endeavored to unravel the mysteries of the rifts, seeking to understand their origins and harness their potential. Yet, amidst the pursuit of knowledge, there lingered a sense of trepidation, for the convergence had brought forth forces beyond mortal reckoning.

In the year 2054, the world stood at the threshold of a new age, where science and sorcery intertwined, and the boundaries of reality were forever altered. The Great Convergence served as a testament to the boundless curiosity of humanity and the profound consequences of tampering with the very fabric of existence. As rifts continued to open and close unpredictably, the fate of the world hung in the balance, beckoning soldiers and scholars alike to defend our home from beings born in the uncharted territories of the multiverse, while our own world crumbled around us.

2055 – Infection

In the wake of the Great Convergence, as rifts bridged worlds, an unforeseen calamity befell the planet. A virulent virus, borne on the backs of interdimensional travelers, spread like wildfire among the animal populations of the world. The virus, with its insidious nature, targeted only fauna, leaving humanity seemingly unscathed.

As the infected animals succumbed to the virus, they transformed into twisted, zombie-like creatures, driven by primal instincts and an insatiable hunger for flesh. The disruption of the global food chain sent shockwaves through ecosystems, leading to widespread famine and ecological collapse. Human societies teetered on the brink of oblivion as resources dwindled, infrastructures collapsed, and chaos reigned.

For years, humanity struggled to adapt to the harsh new reality, battling both the ravages of the virus and the monstrous creatures it spawned. Yet, amidst the despair, a glimmer of hope remained as survivors banded together, forging tiny communities and fortifications to withstand the onslaught of the undead beasts.

However, the virus’s insidious influence eventually extended beyond the animal kingdom. After years of apparent immunity, some humans began to transform as well. Initially dismissed as isolated incidents, these occurrences grew in frequency and intensity, signaling a terrifying new phase of the crisis.

As the line between humanity and monstrosity blurred, survivors faced a harrowing realization: the virus, once confined to the realm of animals, had breached the sanctity of humanity itself. Now, as the world grappled with the dual threats of the undead horde and the encroaching specter of human infection, the fate of civilization hung in the balance. In the shadow of the Great Convergence, humanity stood on the precipice of its darkest hour, facing an uncertain future fraught with peril and uncertainty.

2059 – Life Goes On

In the year 2059, amidst the desolation that had befallen the world, the small town of Griffin, GA stood as a testament to the resilience of humanity, but also as a symbol of how small we are in the universe. Amidst the dilapidated buildings and overgrown streets, the Easy Shop Supermarket, once a bustling hub of commerce, now served as a refuge for two unlikely companions: a dwarf with a bicycle and a butcher.

For five long years, they had eked out a meager existence within the confines of the grocery store, transforming it into a makeshift trading post where survivors bartered for essentials in a world devoid of stability. But as the days turned into months, and the months into years, the flow of visitors dwindled to a mere trickle, leaving the once vibrant establishment eerily quiet.

With provisions running low and the specter of starvation looming ever closer, the dwarf and the butcher knew that they could no longer rely on the dwindling supplies within their walls. Gathering what little courage remained, they made a fateful decision: to venture out into the unforgiving world beyond Griffin, in search of sustenance and salvation.

Armed with little more than their wits and determination, they set forth from the sheltered confines of their makeshift home, venturing into the unknown with trepidation and hope in equal measure. The journey ahead would be fraught with peril and uncertainty, as they navigated through the remnants of civilization, where danger lurked at every turn.

Yet, amidst the ruins and desolation, they clung to a glimmer of hope, forged from the bonds of companionship and the indomitable spirit of survival. As they pedaled through the desolate streets of Griffin, the dwarf and the butcher embarked on a journey that would test their mettle and redefine the very essence of what it meant to endure in a world ravaged by apocalypse.
