The wind howled ferociously, whipping up dust devils that danced across the barren landscape. Families huddled in their homes, the dust seeping through cracks and crevices like a relentless tide. The once fertile soil had turned to parched earth, offering little hope for growth. It was a scene of desperation, but even in the midst of this ruination, there were whispers of opportunity.
Some clung to the faint hope that the rain would return, that their home farm could be salvaged. Others packed their belongings onto rickety trucks and headed for the promise of the city.
It wasn't a decision made lightly. Leaving behind everything they knew was a difficult act, but the enticing of work and security proved too strong to resist.
They journeyed north, drawn by tales of wealth in bustling metropolises. Factories hummed with activity, offering a chance for a improved life. The city streets promised anonymity, a fresh start, a chance to reclaim themselves. But the city itself held its own hurdles, a tangle ofmasses and pressure.

- Every turn he made felt like a gamble, and the future were stacked against him.
- The sun was setting, casting long streaks that stretched out before him like threats.
Chronicles from the Neon Graveyard

Here, in the neon graveyard, the gone walk among the surviving, their stories carried on a tide of glowing vapor.
- Every alley holds a memory, a secret waiting to be discovered.
- Strain your ears
You might just feel their echoes.
Underneath the Southern Cross
