“This is a utopia,” they said. “This is the best place in the universe.”
Of course. A place where you could design exactly how you wanted to look at age 12. A place that provides everyone with jobs and money. A place where no one suffered. A place where everyone was protected from the Outside. The Outside was a radiation-filled place that had killed half the people and mutated the rest. But everyone did suffer in this utopia. They just didn’t know how.
