'A night of shattered glass for the entire human race.

'They are with us now

This new humanity

And they are

'THE GHOST-WALKERS OF THE APOCALYPSE.

'The story of a woman who has seen our future.

A human being become the impossible; become the un-become.

That is, not the Ghost in the Machine

But the Machine in the Ghost.

'You are needed for the dwindling food supply.

You are needed for spare parts.

'This is what will happen to hundreds of millions as darkness descends upon humanity.

You will be ‘wiped’.

Humanity is being reformed.

'“Hannah’s Song”
