This is for what will come story line. It is of the point of view a teacher or parent giving a short history lesion to a child. Advanced technology is taboo. Weapons such as guns have been outlawed, and the most complex projector weapon is a crossbow. Most of the people can read and write, they know what we know for the most part. They know illness isn't caused evil, They don't burn people at the stake for witch craft. How ever a great deal of them believe that the Phoenix was either a god or sent by a god to save them. I can't go into more detail or I could spoil the story for some of you.

No one remembers who had fired the first shot of the war, only that when everything was said and done, the world was burning in atomic hell fire. For Ten years the survivors of the war scrapped by, trying to survive in the hell that they created. The atomic wasteland was only part of the threat to the survivors, Other survivors that only cared for there own survival became raiders. The raiders attacked the few settlements that was trying to make a living. For ten years this went on and on, until one day the Phoenix came. From the ashes of the atomic wasteland like the bird of legion she came. Dressed in the most pure of white she stood tall and proud. The people recognized her power, and listen to her carefully. She told them that they only had two choices. Follow her or Die in this wasteland. One by one all agreed to follow her, only one man refused her help. The man that refused her left the settlement never to had been seen again.

The phoenix worked her miracles, curing the people of there illness, making them strong and healthy again. She didn't just cure the people of the towns she visited but also healed the earth where ever she walked. Green things grew and thrived where only the hardest of plants had grown. The world slowly came back to life by the Phoenix's own hands. To this day we follow her teachings. Forsake the machines of war. Preach forgiveness and tolerance. The world soon became at peace with itself once the deep wounds of the war had finely closed and healed. The Phoenix after fifty years of bringing the world to order raised the phoenix tower and entered it, sealing it behind her never to be seen by morals again. To this day the mile high tower stands as a reminder to all of our past sins and our rebirth from the atomic hell fire.
