The Unchosen make their way to a derelict barge in the sand at the edge of a steep canyon that used to be filled with water, a place that was once called the Burrard Inlet. The small group of six women and three men haul all of their gear (and three dogs) aboard ahead of the impending storm.
Birdseye and Mercy watch the storm rolling in, and to make sure they were not followed. Birdseye mentions that it is coming from the direction of the Deathwaters, and they hurry to help the rest of The Unchosen with the gear.
In a strangely familiar post-apocalyptic landscape where humans are scarce and water is scarcer, a small group of survivors-turned-friends gather together to tell the stories of where they came from, and determine their future paths.
This series begins with Echo's Tale: the recount of how Echo became who she is, and what she seeks that is far more precious than all of the drinkable water in Vancity.
