About this ebook
When you live on an exhausted earth, you always had to be prepared for the worst. And the earth was always throwing its worst. Put in her position, I would have done the same to the people who kept doing everything in their power to kill her. From unpredictable hail large as an average pumpkin to hurricanes that made it rain live fish and to concentrated acid rain that could kill you in minutes. It was like living in a minefield. And the future of seeing my mother had made me forget that. My mom always told me to check the weather before going anywhere. And I did. Until I did not.
