Mareke lives in a classroom in a school. The school is called Colette High, and it survived the the Planetary Wars of 3130. Mereke and her friends are getting up for the day when a boy comes up to the school. They are immediately on guard, since people have never entered or left the town, unless they were a government worker. The remaining cities in North America are now similar to city-states or colonies. They are too far apart for people to really travel. The government sends people around for a census every year, but that's about all. The boy says he is from the Athenian League. Everyone gets worried. The only thing the government says about the rest of the world is that the Athenian League is a group of rebels attempting to overthrow the government. Anyone who meets someone from the League is supposed to alert their local government agent, or sent a homing pigeon to the nearest agent. The boy is called Troy and he is traveling to the Athenian League headquarters. He is from the East Coast. The league dropped him in the region for a mission and he is on his way back. Mareke feels curious, but their leader, Jena pushes Troy away. She says he can have some wood for the night, but he will have to get his own food.
(Okay, update. I remembered this, and I'll post it for you, but it's not done. However, that is most of it. )
