Nuclear Summer



"That nuclear summer. Well, that was shorter than what scientists expected. Was it because some of these scientists did their best to use their inventions to end a nuclear winter from degrading life on Earth just hopefully? Well, still... it gets worse. Thanks to some scorching heat. I need something to bring back life on Earth before it's too late."

--Su Ji-Hoon, A Brave New World

A nuclear summer is a period, hypothesized to follow a nuclear winter that lasted for a year, in which surface temperatures rise to a dangerous degree after the Last Day.

After a decade of nuclear winter, sunlight would return, but food would also remain scarce due to the lack of equipment, fertilizers, and fuel (unless using Garden of Eden Creation Kits). Damage to the ozone layer intensifies ultraviolet radiation, increasing cataracts and cancer, forcing people to wear winter clothing with protective sunglasses.

Years later, world population has fallen to 1960s-1970sslevels of about 3 to 4 billion people. Survivors work the fields using primitive hand-held farming tools. Few million children have been born or raised since the attack. They speak in broken grammars due to poor education and the breakdown of family life. Many Last Day-affected worlds begin to recover, resuming basic industry such as agriculture, mining and logging, producing limited electricity, and using steam power. The population continues to live in near-barbaric squalor.

Some babies who are born within this era are stillborn (unless treated with RadAway in Stillborn Revitalization Facilities).

After defeating Lola Loud and the Grand Emperor, Su Ji-Hoon heroically closes Pandora's Box, turned on the Ancient Beacon (a beacon that would call all alien civilizations, all known and all unknown, to restore the affected worlds), which are to be both found in the inner core from a neutral ancient civilization of Jötunnia (which can only be found on Earth's core).

Soon after, he uses the Stitchpunk Talisman to revive the affected worlds, and completely recover themselves from radiation and damages of the Last Day once more (during the Great Rebirth), ending all conflicts and hatred in all over the omniverse.

Years after the Last Day, a neverending era of good future is now on all the worlds, unaffected and affected by the Last Day, thanks to the heroism of Su Ji-Hoon and all of his friends. The worlds would become a true utopia long after World War III was over.
