Recent people mark the walls with pictures of bloody gods, to ward off the beasts of metal, burned empty houses, so you do not dwell monsters, and gather around the fire, to sing stories when there was a city in another era, before bulldozers razed homes, churches and brothels, and rise up in place of local design. Cornered, some resisted hidden in tunnels and vaults, and at night they attacked the guards and the built derruían during the day, until no one else wanted to build there, afraid of knives and axes, and cruel gods.
