Children of Decay

<p>In an empty barren moor beside a polluted river and a dead forest lives a solitary old man performing a long-forgotten craft.</p><p><br></p><p>He is rumored to have murdered his own wife and children.</p><p><br></p><p>A powerful family's ancient purity has been broken as the banyan tree representing the sanctity of their name has started to decay.</p><p><br></p><p>So to fulfill a prophecy they must open an underground cellar for the first time in centuries.</p><p><br></p><p>Only days before the fated night an escaped convict recites a dream that earns him a place at the estate and the family's prodigal youngest son disappears!</p><p><br></p><p>These are the absurdities our protagonists-a young man from the capital and a fisherman boy with a mysterious past-must face as they partake in a journey where they confront the perils of growing into the realities of adulthood.</p><p><br></p><p><em>Children of Decay</em> portrays a closed social environment-seen through the eyes of a witness narrator-filled with absurdity where industrialization has polluted not only nature in its literal sense but also the spirit and conscience of people. But it also shows hope to restore rebuild and reincarnate.</p>
