Hours Of Darkness

[VOLUME 2 IS UP!!!!] They wake up to the hooters, adults go to work, and kids go to school to obtain knowledge- wish they could say that, because this ain't no normal school. You get trained, you get points, get selected and have a bright future in sight. They call it utopia, but to them it was nothing more than a dystopia. Divided into FIVE sectors and two domains. Each sector do all sort of work just to get three meals a day, and the domains? Silver and Gold-enjoys the luxury of their blood and sweat in exchange of Ruh, the currency. Every sector gets the invitation letters from the domain, five lucky teens get a chance to be the crown, to get better education and support. A golden opportunity to be the part of the domain. Little do they know, sympathy? Towards the sectors? RIDICULOUS. Its a warning more like a symbol, every year, they remind the sectors, they were all at the mercy of domains. What's the proof? you ask. well, who knows. As none of the teens survived to tell the tale.

The grand dinner

"Eve!" Lue said firmly. "Let's talk about that later."

Jack not knowing what is going on between them understood the atmosphere and changed the topic, "Let's go back, we need to carry that pig too right? It's almost dark too."

But the tension between Eve and Lue was palpable, and the conversation never recovered. Even after they changed the topic, no one talked.

Everyone circled the dead pig, thinking hard about how are they going to carry it back.

"Can't we just lift it up?" Ayaan asked.

Beric shook his head, "Too heavy!"

He was right, they probably couldn't carry that heavy thing by themselves.

The sun began to dip lower into the sky, casting long shadows through the forest. The light that filtered through the trees took on a warm, golden hue, bathing the forest in a peaceful glow. They knew they had to act fast.
