The world stops on the American day of Independence, 1999. Upon the river of Padma, in the Bengali region, a devastating battle is fought between the kuei jinn and the newly-awakened antediluvian of the Ravnos, Zapathasura. For three days it rages, and kills, until the intervention of the Technocracy with neutron bombs destroy the bodhisattvas covering the skies with clouds. Weakened by the fight and the blasts, the eldest Ravnos succumbs. That is where the canon ends. ⠀ The End of Man India detects the nuclear blasts, and reports come in of the complete destruction of Rahsahi. Two million dead, there could be no question of the cause in their minds. The small-scale exchange of nuclear weapons between India and Pakistan quickly spills over into China, Russia, and onward. There is no restraint, there is no consideration of de-escalation or loss of civilian life. The effect is total, nearly half of the global population disappears in a flash. People are crushed in their home, flash-fried if close enough or caught in the firestorm as the flames engulf every flammable structure. Then the true dying begins.
