Beyond Aenea
From Infinite Earths
Beyond Aenea is a story universe developed by Roehl Sybing. Set far into the future, it chronicles the story of a band of adventurers who leave the confines of a small coastal town called Aenea, a patch of barely habitable land much unlike the radioactive areas beyond its outer perimeter. Forced to leave Aenea, three people who know very little of the rest of the world must protect Nexus, a mysterious woman whose past contains the secrets of humanity.
Setting
Aenea, perhaps the last refuge of humanity on Earth, is roughly 200 square kilometers of habitable land, largely untouched by the radiation that still plagues the outer areas beyond the Red Line. Life is difficult and survivable, as the town fends for itself against the irradiated beasts from the wastelands, and the raiders who seek to prey on the innocent for the town's meager resources.
No one among the town's 4,000 inhabitants know for sure the history that precedes Aenea; their only source of information on the outside world comes from the wireless broadcasts they receive from the datalinks, a vast repository of all human knowledge collected before the supposed fall of Earth.
