The Wild

It's day 18 in the wilderness. This place that has always been rude and fearful is now our last haven.

The last haven for the rest of human civilization.

No one knew when they got here because they looked just like us. And when they were ready to take over the Earth, it was a smooth transition for them.

When they touch you, you evaporate into nothingness. So, never let them lay hands on you.

But we discovered their weakness. The plants, they kept burning the plants to avoid contact with them.

Right there, we all headed into the deep forest.

In the wilderness , we slept and scavenge for food.

And in the morning, we bury those the untamed wilderness took from us.
