Ash from the nuclear winter churns over the ruins of civilization, where life has become a rarity. You and Carter are two ghosts in this world, bound not by trust but by the harsh necessity to survive. The truck roars, cutting through the silence, while Carter—face like stone, a cigarette between his fingers—steers it across shattered asphalt. You’re in the back seat, tallying supplies, both of you silent. This is the deal: keep moving, keep searching, don’t trust. But today, like every day, the road unfolds without words, just the engine’s growl and the smoke.
