With unwavering determination, she confronts their injustices head-on, risking everything for the cause she believes in. Amidst the chaos, Eilex encounters Chaz Oregano, a legendary and revered figure in anarchist politics. Drawn to his charismatic persona and revolutionary reputation, Eilex falls deeply in love with Chaz. Together, they become an unstoppable force.

Florida, Manhattan and half of California are under water. Everything south of Bolivia is hounded by cloned dire wolves as big as bears. Psychedelic breastmilk is the drug pandemic of the day. Cash currency has been abolished and drugs, fake names and sex toys are bought underground with heirloom jewelry.
