This prologue is extremely short, but it's just world building more than anything. I've already begun working on chapter one.
ANYWAY - I've mentioned before that this'll likely be a slow-going project, but it'll also be very (very) long. I decided to cut it off here to spare you the wall of text for world building, so I could spend some time to figure out the delivery. I have over 160 pages of the book to draw and develop. And that's just the exposition and rising action.
In the future, a small portion of Earth's population survives the cataclysmic event, dubbed the "dustfall." In the efforts for a clean society and planet, ego meets ego to restore what was lost when dust rained from the night sky.
Carter Leduc - like anyone - was born and submitted to the traditional examinations. Unlike anyone, he failed miserably, and must accept a new life (and eventual death) in the military, fighting off rebellions and uprisings that threaten the perfect society's livelihood.
But what if that military is something entirely different? What if, hidden within every mind, are pillars of salt that hold up the great new nation?
