An allegory for our troubled times. Beware of authoritarians and despots
Some said it was a real plague, a pandemic sweeping across the land; others said it was a great lie perpetrated by secretive priests and spread by leaders who would enslave a country for their own gain. But one thing was realthe FEAR that drove thousands from their homes in the dead of winter. They headed north from the cities of the plain, toward the ice mountains of a country ruled by priests and false patriots, a country that polluted its cities and always needed new workers to replace those who died of real diseases.
And yet, when all seems lost, when an entire country is in danger of giving rise to a dictator, a savior appears with unstoppable power, able to either save the worldor destroy it all.
