The Distroying

Blurb

It’s depression; depression has swept the world reducing it to what it is now. Even though years have past since the initial Destroying, cities weep in their sleep. Strays litter the streets of towns gone and cities under strain. Rust clings to the buildings, the smell of blood stains the ground, everybody fears the Repetition, everybody knows it will come.



Prologue

Four years ago the earth was thrown into turmoil when the Destroying came to be. Many believed it the work of God’s wrath or Satin's, others called it the Earth’s revenge, some simply left explanation behind and tried to bear through the time. Whatever it was thought to be, everybody went through the same phenomenon no science or scientist could explain. Even after the Destroying the pain didn’t end. The Riots then came so man could prove it was still its own worst enemy. Many died from the Destroying, many went to join them during and after. Then the Riots came to an end and the Depression crept over then swept over the world quiet as breath.

But a new promise came, a promise of Repetition. The Destroying to come again, one perhaps even worse than the first, with a violent Rioting, followed by a worse Depression, some don’t even think it’ll get that far, they believe the apocalypse will come first and grant the world peace from mankind at last. Nobody wants to think of it, nobody says anything, they just try to live and pray, pray that somehow it will be all right. Some, maybe the smart ones, don’t bother.

Right now I'm working on a novel I left years ago, trying to update what I've done and then hopefully finish it. If no one minds I'll post completed parts here, please feel free to comment and criticise, any feedback is a gift!
