Tuft, wakes up 150 years into the future, a future not filled with advanced technology but rather a landscape reminiscent to that of a medieval society. The year 2074 is very different and yet seemingly simpler than 1924. Jeremy Tuft sets about living amongst his new group of countrymen, basking in the peaceful world until...the wheels of history, of mankind, turn once again, and Tuft faces a dilemma.

A truly interesting take on what the 'future' holds in 1924 (considering this work was written in 1920), and what the 'future' holds in 2074 with a dark turn of events… (mer)
