Character: Artem Black



I stir with a long stick long-extinguished coals, lift the pieces of iron. I think I've already screened all of this godforsaken field, and so nothing was discovered, just went to work the second time. And then the third.
What I'm looking for?
Green sprout? Or at least a bone of another creature that wanted me - a lone boy to take to adopt? Or the shadow of the trees that grew there on the day when my mom took me to walk to the Botanical garden? Forgiveness? Hope?
Soot and coals. Coal and soot.

I still remember life before the war. Remember that once we were different. We lived up there. We were masters of the whole Earth. We built huge cities of glass and steel. We plied the oceans. We conquered the heavens. We had seven billion. We were not designed for living in caves. I was born to breathe the fresh air, and I remember it.

Between the grey of existence and a moment of hope, I choose hope.
