>>3760345This was an idea I had in highschool, it's pretty cringey and nothing but world building but here goes: The story would be called "GIANT".
After a huge race war, a percentage of the human population was sent en masse into a giant hole in the earth that takes up a good 1/12th of the earth's surface like a giant crater however the walls are too steep to climb.
The victorious humans go to live in the mountains and with this distance made between the races, the ones living at the top in the mountains and close to the sky will be the first to be taken by god when the rapture happens and the ones at the bottom in the hole will be out of god's reach and will perish in the apocalypse.
After many ages have passed, the hole people have sustain life and over that time their bodies have evolved and adapted to being much closer to the earth's core. The increased gravitational pull has conditioned their bodies to become extraordinarily strong and all the heat from the sun being contained in the huge tube like of the hole like an oven has tanned their bodies to a dark red.
Anyway, the story would follow the hole people and their journey up to the surface, and as they get closer to the stars they encounter strange events and calamities that may be the influence of a greater force, possibly holy intentities or god-like beings.
It's not known what has happened to the earth's surface after all this time.
Is it still run by the victorious race that won the race wars all the way back? Or have they been taken by god already and the apocalypse is happening on the surface right now?
Perhaps the crimson skin of the hole people isn't because of the heat but because they've been turned into demons and this is what the apocalypse truly is?
Then a thought occurred to me: "Why the fuck would anyone care about this story? I only like it because I made it." and that's when I kinda dropped it.
Pic related is a crappy drawing I did around the time I had this idea.
