You are Edwin, one of a handful of boys herding goats along a ruined coastal railway sixty years after a plague emptied the world of everyone who remembers it, everyone except Granser. Between one bear scare and the next he tells you what he saw as Professor Smith: a student reddening in a lecture hall, cities burning, a barricade failing floor by floor, and a final walk that left him alone on an empty road with no one else left living that he knew of.
