Years after society has corrupted, one city remain in the runes of Los Angeles, but the population is under strict control. If you don't past the test, you're sent to a valley far from the city and must find a way to survive by yourself, along with all the other dumped children. Arden Price is both mentally and physically fit, but they don't want someone with her power living in the city. Tossed out and thriving among the village of outcasts, Arden is determined to take back the city and let everyone live.
