Prelude:
“Hello. No don’t speak; I already know why you are here. How? I can see it in your eyes, you’re a seeker. Come sit. We have much to speak of and little time to do so. Now where to start? It was 2017. The world was finally united in peace. To keep that peace the Order was made. Under the Order things were simple. There was a set way of things and that kept people from crime. It was simple. You knew what to expect from life. Once born, your parents would raise you till you were preschool age. Then you would be taken to one of the many Order schools, where you would stay twenty-four seven till you turn 21. Then you could expect to do whatever job your parents did before you. Never expecting more or less. Then the Order would pick out a wife for you. Then you would have kids and the cycle would start over again. That was the way of things. You thought what the Order taught you to think and believed what the order taught you to believe. No one ever defied the Order. No one ever doubted the Order. No one ever questioned the Order, except the handful of people know to the rest of the world as trouble makers, but to themselves they were seekers…
Chapter 1: The Oldest Conor Child
Now there were three children born to the same parents. They even went to the same school, buy they didn’t know each other. There was the oldest, Athren Conor; then Cathlyn Conor, and Evan Conor. Like the rest of the students at their Order school they never questioned anything. Always following the system, until the day something unexpected happened. Athren Conor over slept!
“Morning again.â€
