Remains of the past III - Loader S. C.

Silently and without warning, the first wave swept away civilisation. On a carefree Sunday morning in early June, most of the world's population suddenly died, falling instantly dead where they stood. There was no opportunity to express any loving sentiments and no famous last words to fill future history books, just silence. A second wave one week later reduced the number of survivors even further. Some of those who had outlived these cataclysmic events formed two communities: the larger one in Weyhill Castle and a smaller one, a short distance away, in Lower Nieder Castle, a former five-star hotel: Personal links between the two groups help to establish cooperation between them, allowing for the sharing of technical skills, knowledge and, inevitably, intimate personal relationships. Despite the fast-approaching seventh anniversary of the waves, members of the two communities are still discovering the grotesque depths to which some survivors have plummeted. To ensure their own long-term survival against these deviants and those who covet everything they possess, both castles initiate a program to strengthen their defences, but with the restricted availability of materials and transportation, this is no easy task.
