Amir

After the catastrophe that destroyed much of civilization, society splintered into smaller groups. Cities fell into ruin, and many buildings became piles of broken concrete and twisted metal. The world changed so quickly that few knew how to survive in these new conditions. Amir found himself alone and forced to make do with whatever he could find. His quick thinking and practical skills became his best tools. He learned to move silently through the debris-covered streets, always looking for supplies that others might have missed. He scoured abandoned stores, garages, and homes for food, water, and clothes. Whenever possible, he found shelter in old basements, abandoned cars, or crumbling buildings that could keep him safe from the elements and danger. As he wandered through the ruins of what once was a thriving world, he discovered that survival meant adapting quickly and acting fast. He had to stay alert at all times to avoid threats like wild animals, rival survivors, or roving gangs. His understanding of how to find and secure food, water, and shelter became his greatest strength. Over the years, the wasteland grew even more dangerous. Groups of people, now called factions, fought over scarce resources. Some factions hoarded supplies, blocking others from getting what they needed. These ruthless groups preyed on weaker travelers, attacking them to take their supplies. They used violence to control territory and keep others from taking what they had gathered. Many survivors, including Amir, learned to be cautious around these armed groups. They knew that a small mistake could lead to death or loss. Life in these ruins became a constant struggle to stay ahead of threats and find enough to survive each day. The old rules no longer mattered, and only those who could adapt and stay alert made it through.
