The year was 2170. The capital of the world once formerly called New York City. Now was the City of Bones.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSRsAIqMSK
It was now branded such a morbid title because there were never-ending power grabs as it was the core of organized crime. Frequently concluding in blood baths throughout the city, causing the pavement to be permanently discolored red from blood. Whoever had control over the city; ran the entire underworld.

All this chaos, anarchy, never-ending tragedies, and for what?
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFUUvCXbcN
It was all for one thing...
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQhCWcmjhb
Power.

Above all else the singular thing you could always count on was people's greed and selfishness. There was no God to salvage you in your times of impecuniousness and you were a fool to assume anyone else would take up for you.

Places of worship, government architecture, and historic monuments were all incinerated to the ground and obliterated long ago in turmoil that induced millions to be massacred as laws and authority of any kind became nonexistent.

Where was their God or government then? When the people were wailing in anguish from losing their loved ones and everything they knew.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbsz2XynV6J
Evidently, this was the present reality ever since the government failed one hundred years ago and everything had been seized by the mafias and gangs. Now, there was no one to safeguard humanity and evil was permitted to run rampant destroying everything in its wake. It was everyone for themselves.

Survival of the fittest; if you will.

Yet somehow out of this chaos the city was split; literally and figuratively. The lower and upper ring was created; separated by cement walls that were thicker than steel and so high they reached the clouds. The entire city was surrounded by the outermost wall, and the inner wall was in the center of the city.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqViL66Wjl
The great walls are one of the most iconic structures built in human history. But it was one of the most extensive and arduous construction projects in human history. The project caused untold suffering for millions of people across the newly unified city. Families were torn apart, and children died hundreds of miles away from their loved ones.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKmX7GGR9p
Originally thought of as a defensive structure it stands as one of the most impressive structures on the face of the planet, but it took a great deal of hardship to accomplish its completion.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMY5CHuBxOc
Because the labor required to build the walls was legendarily backbreaking, there emerged a longstanding rumor that workers who died in the building of the wall had their bodies ground up to make the mortar that would keep it together. Others say that dead workers were simply buried inside the wall.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1PaemHj7U
The upper and lower ring was city land claimed and governed by the underworld to develop contemporary civilizations out of the rubble. Giving the residents no option but to follow the regulations and laws contrived by them.

And soon a young girl by the name of Silla would turn eleven in a months' time. Life was already arduous for the young budding girl, as she was much too young to remain unaccompanied in this callous and unrelenting world.
Which contributed to the young girl's current situation. The lower ring where Silla was born was predominantly dreadful. The gangs that ruled were so stringent that it was virtually impossible to bear. They demanded more than half of your earnings and food.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSNXHTa2KW
It was dirty in the lower ring and most of the tech we got ahold of was from the junkyards along with spare scrape metals. You used whatever you could find; in other words we were scavengers.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt45F46uOS
The young girl dreamed of traveling to the upper ring, where it was nicer and people led rich lifestyles. Still a very dangerous lifestyle, but better than the alternative. Everyone knew that the powerful in the upper ring pulled all the strings that controlled the city.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH9YRcdm7oR
Plans and thoughts aside though first she was going to have to find shelter for tonight and fast. Climate change and pollution from previous factories had made the land colder than ever, even with the new technological advancements.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcWJ2k9AUh
Especially since this years' winter was the coldest and brutalist yet...
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdT4hN6q2N
The streets glistened with a sheet of ice over the pavement, and the wind was bitter and stinging against Silla's skin. When her breath hit the cold air, she could see it float and disperse in the moonlit sky. Even at this inhospitable time of year, there were prostitutes, vagrants, and street-crawlers, along with the occasional drunk dwelling in the dead of night, hidden from the lives of the rich and elite in the upper ring. Who thrived like an infection from how corrupt the city had become.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRaf9ULAYW
Sudden drunken laughter from the bars echoed loudly in the streets, snapping her out of her thoughts as the sidewalk lamps flickered their yellow glow onto the frost and ice below. A man, arm slung over the shoulder of his friend, stepped out of his regular pub hobbling, barely able to stand up without his friend's ever-present support. His words were slurred, barely distinguishable from a toddlers babbling. Although there was a mention of having some fun with a local prostitute.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQWYPJMcLd
Silla was in one of the alleys, watching the drunkards stumble past. Her small body wrapped up in a tattered black coat, hems fraying and sleeves torn. The wind violently tugged at her threadbare clothes and worn shoes. Under the shadow of the young girls' ratty beanie, her dark blue eyes were framed by long black eyelashes. Glancing around to make sure no one was looking her way. So she could hurry to find shelter for the night.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5z7QO6GQbi
The black-haired girl's gloves had multiple holes and didn't keep her small hands very warm. So she desperately started to blow warm air into her shaky hands. "Let's hope I can find a warm place for the night." Tugging the coat closer to her body, she reached one hand up to her beanie and pulled it over her slim face.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9BiuoG191
Just enough to slightly conceal her features. Dashing out of the alley Silla was in, and she ran down off an empty street. Her shadow racing through the lights like a dancer behind her.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVppBWqWDz
Soon she was wandering around abandoned junk yards on the outskirts of the territory. It wasn't long until she finally found a place for the night; an abandoned building, crumbling around the edges with broken windows and piles of debris scattered around. A rotting smell lingered in the air. Making her wrinkle her nose in disgust. Taking action, the fragile girl tugged her coat collar over her nose and mouth.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8V8NL5EcyP
The first thing that needed to be done was to find an open window. Or at least one that didn't have any glass in it. Spotting one instantly. It stood high against the structure of the warehouse, going up into the rafters of the roof and standing high over everything below. The height didn't make it easy to climb, so it looked like she was going to have to use the debris as a latter. It was disgusting, but it had to be done.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq0luvGxWJ
Shrugging her shoulders, she climbed up, slipping every so often. Silla never was much of a climber, anyway. But somehow she managed to reach the window.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQssSusGhm
Jagged pieces of glass stuck out of the frame, but the gap seemed just big enough. She was very slender and could use that to her advantage. As she was halfway through the window, she suddenly let out a small gasp. Looking down, she and saw a shard of jagged glass ripping into her side. It was right above her rib cage. "Ouch," She silently whispered, hissing in pain while blood leaked from the wound.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvahqHgQo7
Once she was through, Silla found herself on the rotten wooden beams of the rafters. Crawling along the beam until she reached the support beam at the center. She curled up against the wood, using her coat as a blanket, and prepared to get to sleep for the night.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxhwsepn1w
Her goal in running away was making it to the unmarked territory; where no one lived. Why it wasn't claimed land no one is quite sure.
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu1fB7oNDd
She just wanted to make it the the Inner Ring...
129Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsyMTvLE9wx
A large zone in the center of the city, surrounded by a wall that once held the city's most elite inside. Though the trip would take months for her to just get there. That is, if she was still in one piece by the time she got there.
