Part 5/10:
J.D. enlightens Levi about their mission—a daily walk along the western rim to maintain automated gun turrets while ensuring the containment of the gorge. This region, marked by secrets dating back to the Cold War, holds sinister secrets, and Levi learns about the grotesque "Hollow Men" that lurk unseen, remnants of military battalions that never returned.
Isolation Breeds Connection
Despite the isolation, Levi's monotony changes with Drasa’s presence from across the gorge. Their communications, filled with banter and half-playful conflicts, transcend strict military protocols. As time drifts by, the absence of human connection turns their mundane routines into a dance of survival and camaraderie.
