The World Has Darkened

Once the night creatures had established dominance again, the world became a vastly different place.
Buildings fell to ruins.
Garbage piled up.
Riots and thievery ran rampant.
Food supplies were scarce.
People hid inside the dilapidated buildings, praying for daylight each twilight. In their desperation, some resorted to cannibulism, preying on those who wandered into their sancutaries.
The government tried to “save” the populace by providing a safe harbor. But most knew that this was only a cover to be used as fuel for their many machines of destruction.
But despite all this, some prevailed. Some “chosen” few of the human race thrived. They built fortresses and machines of their own to combat the nightly terrors that surfaced. These few were trying to save the world.
