The Lesser Sacrifice
The world lies in ruins. Pockets of survivors struggle to rebuild. Among them, a secluded community of gifted children, nurtured by a devoted caregiver.
For decades, she sheltered them from the harsh realities outside. Now, a desperate plea from the last remnants of civilization forces an impossible choice.
The children's abilities could save humanity. But exposing them to the world might destroy everything she's worked to protect.
In a desolate landscape of moral ambiguity, one woman must decide: preserve innocence or sacrifice it for the greater good?
