Mankind failed to transcend the Petroleum Age. The Die Off killed 95% of the human population. 175 years later, mankind consists of scattered nomadic tribes, isolated casino-cities, and roving swarms of predatory bandits. This is the world of the Black Dog Clan.
Chapter 1: The Black Dog Clan's caravan is making its way down trade route towards Three Palms, a casino-city in the American Southwest, when it rolls into an ambush. Roaches have waylaid Bevan, a Northerner, and his burning vehicle has blocked the road. After a fierce firefight, Tracy persuades the chief, her father Lamont, to take Bevan with them.
