“It was strange. The thought of leaving Earth. There was so much history there, 4.5 billion years’ worth. It permeated in the air and the soil. Even the moon would be left behind to keep its cold, lonely vigil. But the world would go on, humanity but a footnote long forgotten as their works were pulled back down into the crust and reformed into something new. The planet's rocky plates would continue to shift and bend over an ocean of molten stone forming new lands never to be seen by human eyes. The seas would retreat from some shores, while drowning others in its fluid mass. All the while new life would flourish, continuing the great chain of life. And the Earth would never once miss those who called themselves homo sapiens, ‘wise man.’” -HELLO DEFIANT www.searosspub.com/hello-defiant #hellodefiant #houndofendtown #endtown #scout #postapocalyptic #postapocalypticworld #postapocalypse #postapocalypticart #endoftheworld #space #novel #scifi #sciencefiction #fiction #literature #books #bookstoread #booksuggestions (at Stone Oak) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgAUHF4LV20/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
