(@MAT Oops. Sorry about that. @TF Sure!) Rita: Oh! I see what this author is doing. I've seen this in writing before. He has the story take place during the aftermath because he wants to build it up as this terrible catastrophe without revealing what it exactly is. Authors who do this will usually leave some clues here and there, but the rest is up to the author to put together themselves. Kind of neat actually.

Lana: You mean like that movie about those three kids who ran from their neighborhood?

Rita: Exactly.

Lincoln: Ah. That makes sense now.
