Really think about what can be lost during times like this? Crazy to think about how a multi year famine and then plague could destroy whole families. Maybe one person out of a whole unit survives. Your only thought is of food and survival. What knowledge and stories were hurled aside in the scramble for survival?
I’ve often thought it would make a cool sci-fi movie to do something like discovering that the ancient world was actually extremely complex and advanced. But that the knowledge, tech, and proof was lost in the mad grab for base survival during epic disaster. Stories like Atlantis become legends that us ‘civilized’ modern science folk scoff at.
