Beyond the wall

The city was ablaze, a cacophony of destruction and despair as buildings crumbled and lives pulled apart. The bombs seemed to have a life of their own, raining down with calculated precision, leaving chaos and heartache in their wake. Fear was the only constant in this place, a daunting presence that clung to every corner and crevice. Tom's heart is a barren wasteland, devoid of life and love, longing for the warmth of a family that was taken from me long ago. Now I am searching for belonging among strangers. Time has no meaning for me, just a blur of days and nights filled with fear and survival. I must find the answers before it's too late.
