The world is empty-but not broken.
No people. No explanation. Just towns, mountains, and echoes of a life that suddenly stopped.
Viper wants answers. Astrid wants motion. And neither of them agree on anything-except that sitting still is not an option.
The world didn't end.
It emptied.
No warning. No disaster. No explanation. Just silence where people used to be.
In a forgotten mountain town, Viper survives by logic-maps, routines, and control. If she can understand the pattern, maybe she can understand what happened.
Then Astrid arrives like a storm.
Loud, chaotic, impossible to ignore-and determined to turn survival into something that feels almost like living.
When the two of them are forced together in an abandoned school turned home, they don't expect anything to last.
But in a world without people... they start building something anyway.
And neither of them is prepared for what happens when survival turns into trust.
