Before the apocalypse began, the thing Rhayra wanted most was to turn 18 and move to SC12 with her older brother Rick…
Her brother had only moved to the city for 2 years, but he was now a completely different person… Not only was he mysteriously the strongest of the group of survivors, knowing how to use the new power that few were still learning, but there was a much greater maturity that was not there before…
Her brother had always been a figure of admiration and example for her, who was very young when their father died, and since Rick was a child, he had always been much more mature for his age… But Rhayra thought there was something there beyond maturity… Was there something in his gaze, a kind of tiredness and sadness? Maybe that was the gaze of someone with a lot of experience? Or was it the gaze of someone who could see the future?
