The Bard

Doctor Jaysin Trenken and his wife Kielene along with their 10-year-old, Sayth live in an era of technological disadvantaged. With his horse-drawn coach to make house calls, his wife washes their frontier-style clothes, using two wash tubs, a scrub board and sunny-day line-drying. Although, the small nuclear power plant, used for heating and cooling of the house as well as powering some of the high-tech devices, sat quietly in the basement of their home. It is the year 2683. “The wealthy inherited the Earth.” They live comfortably in their domed cities while the middle-class, like Dr. Trenken and others, live off the land by growing food and creating the products for themselves and those in the dome Cities. The scavengers of the prairie are called the Bard. They steal clothes off the line or food out of the garden and out of mouths of the wealthy. The Dome Dweller initiated the Bard Hunters. Their job...eradicate the vermin and killing all males over puberty in order to eliminate procreation.
