Fictional Life

REDEMPTION
by Jeff Karamales

Inspired by "Sunset of Furnankind"

When everything in her world is taken from her, one young widow turns to her only option left for a new beginning. Upon building a new life, she will once again need to put the people she cares about the most on the line when she is charged with leading a return to a planet that has already claimed most of the lives of the original colonists. Shouldering this burden, she will seek redemption from her life before becoming Furmankind.
