STORY

The story begins in a desolate wasteland, where a scavenger is searching for items. When scavenging, She often reads an old book from the past which was given by her mom, depicting a world full of green grass, plants, and life. Motivated by the illustrations, she must decides to look for the sign of life that will restore Earth. She chooses to venture further, as long as she can find a way to survive off the barren land itself. Using her knowledge of the terrain, she plans to reach a small city where she believes there might be some indication of plant life. 

She begins searching  for plants upon reaching the city while reminiscing about what the world used to look like. After some time, she finds nothing and decides to move toward a tower situated near a riverbed. While following the riverbed, her mind drifts to stories told by her relatives about what life was like in the past. She wonders if they made the right choice by returning to the surface, but ultimately, she believes they already made that decision. She reaches the tower and begins searching for any sign of plant life, but then she realizes that her rations are getting thin. Will she be able to survive long enough to reach her goal? Who knows, the answer might just be around the corner.
