Between Love and Control: A World Divided
Imagine a world where love is considered a disease, where emotional connection is surgically removed at age eighteen. This is the haunting reality of "Requiem," where society is split between Portland-a walled city of emotional control-and the untamed Wilds where rebels fight for the right to feel. The contrast couldn't be more stark: inside Portland's walls, citizens live in climate-controlled homes with reliable food and modern conveniences, but exist in a state of emotional numbness. Parents show no particular affection for their children, spouses interact with mechanical politeness, and friendships remain superficial. Meanwhile, in the Wilds, rebels struggle daily for survival-scavenging abandoned buildings, sleeping in makeshift camps, enduring bitter cold with limited supplies-yet they experience the full spectrum of human emotion that gives life its vibrancy. The physical wall separating these worlds isn't just keeping rebels out; it's keeping Portland's citizens in-both physically and mentally. As one character observes, the wall represents not just containment but constraint-a barrier between two ways of being human. This division forces us to consider: Is safety worth sacrificing what makes us human? Is a controlled, predictable life preferable to one filled with both joy and pain?
