When Everything Human Is Stripped Away
Forty women exist in an underground bunker, watched by silent guards who never speak, never explain. Among them lives a girl who knows nothing else-no childhood beyond these concrete walls, no memory of sunlight or trees. The guards enforce arbitrary rules with electric prods. The women eat tasteless rations, sleep on bare floors, relieve themselves in buckets. No interrogations occur. No demands are made. The captivity has no apparent purpose, and this absence of meaning becomes its own torture. How do you resist a system that refuses to reveal what it wants from you? The women construct elaborate theories-experiments, apocalypse survivors, political prisoners-but every explanation feels insufficient. Then one day, an alarm sounds. The guards flee. The cage door stands open. For the first time in decades, they face a choice.
