[h2]The story[/h2]
A grey stone wall surrounding streets, houses and buildings. A large gate, guarded by a selection of men and women that received extensive sniper training. Barbed wire laid out in the woods and streets surrounding the walls. A settlement, in the middle of an old village in Europe, at the foot of a mountain, now surrounded by woods and greenland. The buildings outside the settlement broken down and in ruins causes by The Quakes and time itself. On the inside of the walls, people walk the cobblestones on their way to their appointed task. In the middle of the settlement: a tavern called That Damn Pub.

The people in the Fireflies Settlement are safe, or so they think. The Lily, the dam nearby supplies the town with power. The river supplies the town with water and fish. The gardens grows vegetables and fruits, the fields filled with wheats to feed the town. This is how the town survives and thrives. The settlers have tasks that help the settlement survive. The teachers teach the younger ones about dam engineering, hunting, gardening, cooking. The knowledge must be passed over, in order to survive. There’s cooks, medics, builders, guards, gardeners, hunters, teachers and maybe most important: dam engineers. The dam engineers keep the dam running, make sure the power stays up and the water flows freely. The two settlements below the mountain, Fireflies and Water Leafs have lived in harmony all this time since The Quakes, with the dam in between them. 


But an accident happened. Two engineers, one from the Fireflies Settlement and one from the Water Leafs Settlement fell in love. They climbed their way to the top of the dam, to see the fireflies that show up at night. But, what should’ve been romantic, turned into disaster. Jess, the female engineer from Water Leafs tripped and fell off the dam into the streaming rough water below. The death of his lover shocked Jacob, whom returned to his settlement with news of the accident. But once the other town found out, they blamed Jacob for killing Jess, and the two settlements cut ties as a result of this feud. The only neutral ground is the dam, where engineers from both settlements still work on the dam. But lately, there have been accidents on the neutral dam, and the Water Leafs settlement is slowly trying to take over the dam.
