Though outlawed nearly a century ago, the fuel that once built the world has now become the most powerful weapon on earth; more powerful than bombs; more protected than any public official; more fought over than any religion. In the early days after the fall of the old world, many factions battled out on the desolate highways and abandoned city streets for control of fuel and the engines powered by it, and for survival, not only against each another, but against a rising threat; a technology they could not understand; a technology that brought with it, the cold reality of their unavoidable demise. The world they knew was dead; holding onto the ways of their fathers and grandfathers was the only hope for existence. Those who hold onto the illegal fuel, hold the truth.
