Psychonomic Civilisations

(continued) ...For the teenagers, everything outside of the city was nothing but a cheap resource to be exploited, and their arrogance grew day by day as they descended into a spiral of addiction and mental illness, often exacerbated by the city itself.  Instead of abandoning their concrete fortress and returning to the village, they would … Continue reading Psychonomic Civilisations
