Day 1,478

When the world flooded it wasn't nearly as dramatic as we thought it'd be. There were no great tsunamis, no sunken continents or no drowned cities. Most of the world was waist-deep in sewage tainted water that gradually cleared to a more natural silt-shade.

We didn't know what the rising water had brought with it until the coastal areas were emptied overnight. No blood, no bones, no trace of anyone. It was like they'd never existed and at first we thought they all moved out to sea without telling a single soul as if they knew something worse was coming and all fled before it could arrive but no...

The oceans stilled, the waters cleared and we stared into the depths.

And the depths stared back.
