Description
Twenty years after the fall of the Government all children, at reaching the age of 14, are collected and sent to re-training facilities. There, they are educated to do various jobs ranging from chefs to "companions". The elites make the selections based on whatever drives their urges on any given day, nothing more or less.
The adults, 25 years and above, are rounded up and taken to "relocation" centers where they are never heard from again...
All labor is done by the youngest members of the lower casts... assisted by machines and robots. After the fall of The Democratic Union, all resources were focused on making life more pleasant for the Elites. So, industry slowed to a crawl while science and technology sped up at lightning speed. This advance in science was not available to any but the richest of the population. Millions of people across the globe struggled and starved while the change took place.. those who survived surrendered and became little more than drones following orders without question so that they might live for another day.

I feel a new Story coming on Seth,great eh.

Excellent and creepy image. You really know how to paint a bleak future. I imagine about 4% of the population may actually think this to be a good idea. It's scary because it sounds so real. Great work. I read the title and looked at the image and at first I wondered who was collecting who LOL!

aw, you left out the part where the worker bees are fed a special marijuana extract that makes them happy with their situation and prevents them from breeding or revolting!!!! Grand image!

the scary thing is, this could really happen, huh? nice dark mood and coloring. the girl looks tense and very unsure. nice work.

This is chillingly brilliant - or is it brilliantly chilling... A glimpse into a possible future? I hope not, but aside from the "re-training" I think we're halfway there, already. This is most excellent, Seth!

Scary and thought provoking...It's not as far fetched as some might think...

i agree with so many who have commented, not so far away as it seems if the general public doesn't revolt and bring that hierarchy down! excellent image render and narration of what could be a reality!:)*5

In few words to follow ZanderXL : as we're on October, we won't forget the Red one, also 1789, Stirling Bridge, Ponte Novu and more...da difende à so libertà ! Incù a forza immensa d'una mossa cumuna... Great scene to remind us...
dragonmuse
How frightening. Interesting concept though.
Ash888
this is shaping up into a real dark storyline here... You got me hooked :-)

What really sells the image for me here is the stark contrast between hard metal and soft frills. Seemingly simple, and yet very very disturbing. Great work, Seth! :)
adrie
