Complete Summary of This Novel
At first, the protagonist’s actions seem purely logical. They secure the best locations, acquire rare supplies, and take advantage of opportunities others overlook. With each passing day, they become more efficient, building a stronghold while staying ahead of the looming disaster. However, as the apocalypse nears, their isolation grows. They realize that while they are preparing for survival, others are unprepared and unaware of what’s coming.
Soon, ethical dilemmas arise. Should they share their knowledge and resources, risking their own safety in the process? Or should they keep everything to themselves, ensuring their survival at the expense of others? The protagonist struggles with the balance between selfishness and altruism. They also encounter groups who, seeing their stockpiled resources, either attempt to steal from them or try to force them into alliances.
As the story unfolds, the protagonist’s decisions begin to alter the course of events, leading to unexpected consequences. The more they hoard, the more they realize that their actions might be causing the very cycle of apocalypse and regression they are trying to escape. With each reset, the world changes, but so does the protagonist. Ultimately, they must confront the question: Can one person truly prepare for the end of the world, or will their actions only ensure it?
The novel explores survival, ethics, and the consequences of tampering with time, with a thrilling and thought-provoking journey to the end of civilization.
