After the war between the US, Russia and China, the world is left in shambles. To survive in the harsh nuclear winter, years after the initial nuclear bombing, most of the survivors in the world have gathered in the city of Elpis, the only place they can survive.
Elpis is home to everyone who can afford it, with limited places to work to make a living. With a population of 10,000 crammed into tiny apartments one next to the other, it is difficult to live a life of peace. The Big 10, the official government of Elpis, is in control of everything and everyone, keeping them inside the city and away from the radioactive wastelands.
Mei Xiang, a 24 year old mailer and club hostess has no one other than the 3 toddlers she adopted and is living with and her missing twin brother. Working almost all day to be able to feed them and at the same time search for clues on her brother's disappearance has taken a toll on her, until the information of a mysterious letter she is supposed to deliver falls into her hands.
The Grey Hound is an urban legend. Wherever he goes, people go missing, and he is rumoured to be practically immortal. People say he has killed those that stand in his way with a single swing of his arm, and he is feared whenever he appears in Elpis. No one knows where he comes from, but some say he is seen coming in and out of the wastelands.
The world of Elpis is cruel and always watching. The two of them will soon clash, and the many secrets hidden in the purple and blue shadows of the city will be uncovered, whether that be with light or a blazing fire.
AN: I really enjoy this concept more for UNITT 137 than the previous one. The MCs are younger, with more interesting backgrounds and a fuller plot. The main points of UNITT 137's previous plot are kept along with the twists and turns, but now the universe of it is more fleshed out. This revamped version is mature, compared to the previous one, and a lot more ruthless for the MCs.
If you want to be in the tag list, please comment!
I will not yet upload any chapters as I haven't written much yet, so look forward to it after about a month! You are free to send asks about it, and opinions about it, and also try to guess the big twist of its universe, though I know it will be difficult without any chapters and only the character aesthetics ;)
