When the Messages Began
The Receiver lives on an island that was once part of a larger community before it changed after experiencing power loss from something or someone unknown. Meanwhile, a computer suddenly comes alive with messages written by the SendeR and intended for Receivers who know how to communicate through digital exchanges in hopes of exchanging knowledge about themselves as well as seeking help understanding each other's goals related to their respective roles within an existing community that has survived after experiencing power loss from something or someone unknown.
