Strangely Forgotten

You ask about WW3, your voice uneasy. You can recall information about a first and second World War, but you blank when you get to three. The woman looks up from her paper, uninterested, but answers your question, "It began with a bunch of leaders disagreeing, taking sides, and threatening each other. War began, which is when you enlisted, then at some point, an EMP was dropped, taking out power across the globe. We think that's when your plane crashed. Millions of people died that day. You're lucky to have survived." Although her words were meant to be humbling, her tone stayed stoic. You're annoyed at how shallow the description of the war is, but you move on.
