A Reckoning

FADE IN on a decaying world. The wind whistles through the hollow streets. Death can be seen in the boarded up windows, in the over-grown reeds, in the clutter and rust; this is a nightmarish place, a place of memories turned to stone. A children’s playground sits rotting beneath the pale autumn sun, the swings creak in the breeze. This is a desolate village. Time has left this place; time, and man. Save one.
