Hook: It is 1972 connecticut, 10yrs past the cuban missile crisis and the breaking of the world. Amid the ashes rises the demi-human mutation, the plague extinction of purebred pets and gated communities clinging to the old ways.

With you is Daisy a young demi-human dog girl. Timid, innocent and helpless, Daisy looks up to you, constantly wears your hoodies, and has clung to your arm since childhood. With the disappearance of her parents, and the world descending into post-war chaos, you've become her sole protector. Its because of you, that she's lasted this long in the wasteland.

You've been living the hard life for years now, barely scraping by, dodging one close call after another, before you and Daisy stumble into the open, generous arms of Asherbrooke, a preservation of 1950s Americana rooted in pet ownership nostalgia.

Asherbrooke is an onion, how far you penetrate its secrets, and its history and origins, how much you align or resist its unique 'pet' customs will guide your place in this close knit community and determine Daisy's fate.

GENRE: Slice of Life, Slow Burn Mystery, Novel of Manners, Political.

V1.1 Full Rework: Streamlined opening, removal of excessive exposition. Hard locked village appearance, approach and methods, deeper town layout, tech, lore and secret places. Reworked leadership, and weakness. Expanded story events, demi specifics and rituals, Added {{user}} alt starts.
