The future was chaos, war and blood and thirst, ending with everyone's bones bleached white in the desert. The sand would bury their buildings and bodies, and eventually it would be impossible to tell that anyone had lived in the desert at all.

About This Quote

The desert is a metaphor for the end of the world. It is a place where there is no life, where people are forced to live in order to survive. Life on Earth can end at any moment, which means that the only way to hold on to it is to keep fighting. If life on Earth ceases to exist, then what will we do? By describing our future as one where blood and war reign supreme and everyone’s bones are bleached white in the desert, we see that we must always fight in order to continue living.
