621 Words3 Pages
One of the first conflicts introduced in the novel begins when the main character Rector first enters the walled city of Seattle. While he is on his way to find his friend Zeke's body to bury it he becomes chased by something he cannot see through the blight of the poisoned city. It is described as being impossibly tall to be human, its footsteps loud and its breathing even louder. In his panic this creature's presence is described as dark and evil but he could tell it was intelligent from the way it acted as it chased him through the town. The chase itself was hopeless until he fell into a hole into the underground and became unsconcious, putting him into the care of the people who live in the Vaults as he falls into their laps.
