Humanity had been greatly decimated during the years that the planet had been shrouded in darkness and cold but was now about to gain new strength when the life-giving sunlight had returned and thus opportunities to once again produce food in the form of various crops and feed new livestock. Mankind could be likened to the mythological immortal bird Phoenix, which, after having died in flames and combustion, rises again from the ashes to new life. But which version of the bird Phoenix was going to be resurrected? Powerful forces wanted to restore the financial order that had prevailed earlier. Those who represented an alternative lifestyle did not want a repeat, and they tried hard to stay united and strong, but were persecuted and vilified.
