Cain slowly walked towards the fallent outpost...
With all the sand having gone to who knows where, the gorge had disappeared, and the outpost, or rather, what remained of it, was scattered across the ground, its remnants left destitute just like most of what the world had become.
With most of the sand clearing away, Cain was really able to appreciate the devastation that had come to the City.
The paved roads were cracked and the buildings that still remained intact were in terrible condition, some of them on the verge of toppling over.
Since the region encased by the dome of sands was closer to the center of the City, there were a lot of high rise remnants, vestitudes of upscale buildings, and leisure places of the wealthy and influencing.
Now, everything was rubble, barely distinguishable from what it used to be.
However, as luck would have it, hope was a resource not yet used up.
