Part 3/10:
The protagonist of this narrative, Detective Robert Thorne, navigates his existence within this chaotic world. He resides in a cramped one-bedroom apartment with his aging friend, Saul Roth, a former professor who now serves to piece together the lost remnants of society’s written history. Saul often reminisces about a time when real food was plentiful, but Robert, hardened by his circumstances, finds it difficult to believe such tales.
