In the time after the meteors brushed past Earth, a host of deadly new disease sprang into being. Mankind rushed to find vaccines, cures, and even ways to manipulate human DNA to enable humankind to better fight off the onslaught of new diseases. Failing on all counts, a handful of intrepid scientists sought instead to find ways to alter man enough to survive in the brave new world he would inevitably find himself part of.
The scientists succeeded only in creating a far worse disease, one mockingly called Ravineux for the near insatiable bloodlust it created in the initial stages… the Ravineux virus cemented a terrible change altering all it affected forever from homo sapiens to homo avius or homo vorax. The Ravineux, as those of the homo vorax species came to be called, spread over the face of the earth like a plague, until the remaining humans were few and far between… and the only hope for human kind’s survival lay not with the humans, but with the Flyers or homo Avius…
Come into the story of a young man who did not know he could fly, and of the man who taught him to soar before he ever had wings.
