Melihat dunia masih dihuni oleh manusia - manusia yang tersisa dari segala bencana tersebut. Akan tetapi, yang ia lihat hanyalah bencana yang lebih besar dibandingkan bencana yang sebelumnya. Alih alih manusia bertobat dan menjauhi segala kemaksiatan, manusia justru menjadi makhluk yang seperti iblis. Mereka mengutuk segalanya atas kehancuran dunia ini. Sekte-sekte mulai bermunculan. Manusia yang senang membunuh yang tersisa. Pembunuhan untuk bahan persembahan dijadikan alasan untuk membunuh. Semua hal- hal biadab mulai diterapkan oleh orang - orang di dunia yang tidak jelas siapa yang mengatur. Yang tersisa dari bencana ini rupanya hanya orang - orang bangsat ini. Manusia - manusia ini terus bereproduksi dan menciptakan lebih banyak manusia bangsat di tahun tahun berikutnya. Shin selama 8 tahun terus menerus berusaha hidup di dunia yang seperti ini. Menghabiskan waktu di rumahnya dengan memakan makanan hasil tanam sendiri, ia berusaha mencari arti hidup. Di tahun 2043 ketika tahun baru, Shin yang saat itu berada di tengah keramaian karena tengah mencari bibit tanaman baru  lupa bahwa hari ini adalah tahun baru. Pesta tahun baru yang sangat mencekam dipenuhi oleh banyak sekali orang - orang yang mengerikan dari dunia baru. Shin tiba - tiba ditarik bajunya oleh seseorang ke suatu gang kecil keluar dari jalan jalan yang dipenuhi orang - orang yang tengah melakukan pemujaan. Setelah ditarik, dia melihat seorang perempuan usia sebaya kelihatannya, bernama Kana. Ia memiliki rambut merah tembaga yang cukup memukau.  Kana memperkenalkan dirinya sebagai salah satu orang yang tertinggal di dunia busuk ini. Kana membawa Shin menuju ke sisa - sisa orang yang masih ada di dunia ini. Mereka akan bersama - sama menguak tempat yang menjadi awal mula dari bencana. Dia pun berjalan mengikutinya ke sebuah gorong - gorong  bawah tanah yang sudah agak kusam karena tidak terawat dengan baik. Mereka berjalan sesaat hingga akhirnya menemui sebuah jalan yang sangat gelap tanpa penerangan apa pun. Kana menyuruhnya untuk mengikutinya dengan memegang tangannya sembari berjalan perlahan. Dia masuk ke dalam kegelapan tersebut bersamanya. Kana lalu menyalakan cahaya ketika mereka berjalan cukup lama lalu berhenti. Mereka sampai ke sebuah lubang besar yang agak gelap dengan sebuah tangga kayu yang mengarah ke bawah. Tempat itu benar - benar gelap dan tersembunyi, tak mungkin orang - orang luar mengetahuinya. Kami menyebutnya ... "DUNGEON OF LIFE"

Monarch Butterfly

NOTE : This novel will only comprise of 42 chapters, and a few special chapters. Please give it till at least 3 chapters before walking away. Since it is a short plot, I hope everyone understands why it must end after the designated chapter count. Thank you for reading. [EXCERPT] "I can't do this anymore!" In a torn hospital gown, Aurora screamed standing in the middle of a road. "I don't want to die, please!" She pleaded to the man standing in front of her, staring her down as she walked away slowly, not being able to remember his face. Sean approached her trying to calm her down but she couldn't remember him. Those were the last words he heard from her : "Please" [SYNOPSIS] Monarch butterflies are strongly associated with the dead, because they are constantly going through phases of life and death in their migration period. It is almost as if the monarch butterfly knows that death is not to be feared, it is just another essential part of the journey. Aurora is an outgoing, beautiful high-school senior with a lot of friends and a family she absolutely adores. She lives her life to the fullest and influences people around her to live in the moment with her. She takes her life as a blessing while it is completely normal. However, before her last exams of high-school, she is diagnosed with Glioblastoma and is given 6 weeks of life. How will she make her 6 weeks significant? Will a miracle occur and she will be saved from death? How will her friends and family cope with it? How will her friend who has fallen in love with her react to her illness? Will they date when her death is so close? How will she lead to representing Monarch Butterflies? What meaning will she find in her limited days of life? Will she cling to it, or quietly let it go? The events of present and past are displayed in her mind as every single day passes. Will she be able to withstand the pressure? Find out more about Aurora and her friends as each chapter displays the continuous series of past and present, which are nothing but flashing memories slowly fainting from Aurora's mind as she drives closer towards death.
