Today, we’ve got a world on wheels with “Fixing the System in Tilt Town” from Reckoning 8, written by Kat Murray and read by Anna Pele. This one is a voyage, listeners. Despite occurring in a relatively small setting, Murray takes us through a period of dramatic change in the life of our main character. See the workings of a civilization that knows only sacrifice and exclusion. Watch how high of a price people are willing to pay. Wonder, alongside our character, what it would take to live a different life, a decent one. Will luck be on our character’s side? Is luck even needed? Story’s rolling right on in just a moment.
