In honor of all those tearing themselves and their lives apart over the supposed predictions of a long-dead society.
Though I'm being facetious, it did inspire me, in a way. Hearing reports of those that ended up offing themselves because they believed that the end of the world would arrive, or likely others that holed themselves up in their houses, stockpiling food and water in order to fend off...whatever it was that would end the world.
For us, life continues on as normal.
But for them, the world did end. At least, as how they chose to perceive it.
Write a story about someone who has to cope with readjusting back into society, following their belief that the world would end on the 21st. Why did they believe it in the first place? What sort of measures did they take in order to protect themselves and withdraw? Are they able to function normally?
Have fun!
