Asleep for too long...

After a year in hibernation, Qweeg finally rises from his slumber.  But the world has moved on in his absence; would be colonists have begun to arrive in ever increasing numbers; skills now matter; and worst of all, Qweeg is no longer the mighty hunter he once was.  Past achievements and glories have been long forgotten - and a new breed of hunter has arisen: brash; strong; and better equipped than Qweeg.  For the first time in as long as he can remember he feels a pang of fear as he readies himself to confront what lays ahead.

Time to take a deep breath and venture out to see what this strange new, but at the same time familiar, landscape this has in store for him...

  1. ...and he was never heard of again. Many explorers succumbed to the harsh reality of living in the wilderness. Leaving little else behind but a pile of bones and busted armor parts.

    With every pile we come across these days it's hard not to think: "Could this be him? Or is he still out there somewhere?". Perhaps we'll never find out, but we honor him regardless. For challenging this Brave New World and sharing his stories with all of us in the present.

    Salute, Buddy!
