Once upon a time a long, long time ago the world was brightly awashed in the colors of electric lights and sondered with the smoke of fuel burning vehicles and factories. Man had built machines to make goods and services, to improve the lives of others. Yet in their foolishness, they sacrificed the nature of the world they had come to dominate. While some had forseen the future devastation, others rallied against these notions of reflection. Looking instead to continue the ways of life that had so far led to their happiness. In all of Mans failings in these distant years it was that of their failure to protect the nature of their world that had doomed them to failure.
