The end came and went for humanity of old. An uncontrollable spark that quickly raged out of control. Tacet was there to see it. He lived and fought through it all, and in the process he lost all of his friends and suffered greatly. As the Great End came he closed his eyes, never expecting to wake up again, not even desiring to. Untold years pass, and he is awakened to his surprise in a world he could not recognise anymore. The last true human emerged to explore the plagued world of Terra. To find new purpose in a world dominated by the once emergent races that he fought. With this new world he came to realise of a great conflict within himself. The wolf type mutant race that he fought now evolved to what humanity failed to achieve. Stable human-animal hybrids. He met for the first time the refined race now known as lupos. His enemy of old now turned into graceful creatures that brought great strife within him. How will he reconcile his feelings in the face of the reckless and deadly lupo's of Rhodes Island? Tacet's fate branches out depending on which lupo fate guides him to meet first.This is the story of Tacet's fateful meeting with a certain catastrophe messenger, also considered to be the canon route in the author's perspective.
