Once upon a time, men erected multitudes of chimneys, from which great volutes
of opaque gray smoke rose to the heavens. Crushed, suffocated and paralyzed, mankind
and the Earth were annihilated in a single salvo, leaving behind only ruins, reminiscences
and spectres of that sunken time.
Here, in the depths of these abysses, lie a few remnants. As if in a hazy, lonely dream,
walls and nooks and crannies reveal the semblance of lost and spectral existences.
