"Long and radiant life to the rebels,
to the lunatics of nature,
to uncontaminated dreams,
to the great loves that happened at random
and that by chance they do not find the end.
[...]
Long and radiant life to the rebels,
to those who feel outside the box,
to those who do not tell lies and emotions, to those who try to live every day
No savings, no addictions.
Long and radiant life to the rebels,
sometimes they are strange characters,
but they write the story. "
-Abner Rossi
This story is set in the immediate future: it could be happening in a year, in ten days or at this precise moment. What has yet to happen is unpredictable, uncertain; it escapes into your hands and you can not find a way to control it, even with the best intentions. Despite this, through the present, you can always find a way to redeem yourself and bring your future back on the right path.
After the seizure of power of a political organization whose priority is the preservation of the most important metropolises of the country, measures will be taken indefinitely to solve the 'problems' that prevent large cities from showing how the country benefits economicaly and socialy.
Rules will be imposed to remove people from towns and villages for families that are not economically advantageous, foreigners from indebted countries and anyone who can be considered a detriment to the prosperity of the country.
But freedom to have a dignified life, to happiness, is not subjective.
The people targeted will try in every way to rebel, to take back the life that is due to them and that no one should afford to take away from them.
Will they be devalued and underestimated, will the willpower mixed with hope be enough?
A masked boy will lead the revolt, his name is Metamer and he is ready to do anything to take back what has been taken away.
Be ready to become one of his fireflies.
"As long as a single firefly shines in the night, no one can speak of darkness."
