- a private roleplay between Miiyako and Xavi -

Past the barbed wire, mangled bodies, ravenous hounds, and the vast wasteland lays what people call Utopia. It's a literal paradise in such bleak times. The city has it all: food, water, shelter, technology, weapons... everything. Many have traveled far and wide to find it but most do not reach it, and it's not because of fairy-tale myths or lore. Truth is, it is just too far away to make it alone. Not to mention, there's little proof that it's real. After all, if you found utopia, why leave?

Two years ago, Ollie, a decorated space marine, was set to earth to help relieve the fallout-struck planet. It was supposed to be a simple in-and-out mission but shit hit the fan when the gravity of the situation turned from friend to foe. Ollie and his crew were stuck between a rock and a hard place: kill or be killed. There was no returning to the space station. There was only surviving the brutalities of the wasteland they were now forced to call home. Without much a choice, Ollie took up arms and fought his way out. Now, he wanders the desert looking for a way back home. At this point, he'll believe and try just about anything.

Having spent two years without finding a solution, Ollie is ready to call it quits. Only, someone, a stranger at a bar, speaks of a place called Utopia. Intrigued, he keeps a close eye on the story teller, knowing full well that, if the stories are true, he can finally return to space.

Despite the odds, these two unlikely individuals pair up and trek across the east coast in search of Utopia. As they run on their hunches and gut, things start to take interesting twists and turns. Will they find Utopia? Or will they become just two more bodies to litter the wasteland?
