Another Discovery
🌅✨ Who Was Really Behind It? ✨🌅
The group moved carefully through the skeletal remains of a communications hub 📡🏚️. Dust swirled in beams of morning light as Ivy Mae lifted a pile of scorched folders and old tablets.
Jas wiped one screen clean, and it flickered to life ▶️. Voices came through — recordings from journalists, analysts, and citizens arguing over responsibility:
Voice 1 (news anchor): “Was it the tech companies? The billionaires? Or the regulators who failed to foresee the risks?” 📰
Voice 2 (citizen recording): “They bet everything on spectacle, on hype. Robots that never worked, money that didn’t exist. And we paid the price — our jobs, our homes, our food.” 💸🏚️
Voice 3 (analyst): “Governments, investors, corporations… all intertwined. The solar flare just exposed the cracks that were always there. Fragile systems, fragile promises.” ⚡🌪️
The screen cycled through photos of board meetings, abandoned factories, protest signs, and piles of empty ledgers — evidence that the collapse was systemic, not just one person’s fault 📷🗂️.
Roman frowned, voice low. “It wasn’t just him… it was all of them. Every person, every system that let spectacle outweigh reality.”
Ivy Mae nodded slowly, looking at the crumpled papers and flickering videos 🌾✨. “History will remember the collapse, but the lesson isn’t blame. It’s how fragile our world can be — how easily everything can melt away when we ignore the earth, the people, and the storms we can’t control.” 🔮🌬️
They packed the tablets carefully, knowing these fragments were more than stories — they were evidence, warnings, and guidance for anyone who survived and would come after.
