War is a cycle of destruction, and violence always begets violence. The world changed on January 21st, 2090. Hernando Colvac of Vyndral declared open war against Crusadia. This was the start of the That war was ended two years later by the Rafian government. Rafia released three fourths of their entire nuclear arsenal, detonating 720 anti-terran bombs, with a yield of 36, 000 megatons, across the entire surface of Vyndral.
They left their world in ashes, a desolate and nearly uninhabitable shell of its former self. An estimated 77% of the Vyndral population perished in the explosions, accounting for 7.6 billion deaths. But that wasn't the end of the story. Life found a way to survive. The people left behind were left with no support, no aid from anyone on the outside. They were completely alone. Marden Aswalde and Elizabeth Dracco were eight years old when their world was destroyed.
Resisting violent factions that rose up to rob the planet of resources and labor in the wars that followed the apocalypse, the Children of the Mushroom Cloud have no other option. There is a time for peace, but it is not when people are being butchered and enslaved. Facing insurmountable odds, the children must find a way to survive.
