What does one do when everyone vanishes? How does one handle it? One might decide to start looking. Looking for what? Anything really. Survivors, the cause, something to busy oneself with. Maybe start a doll collection... No one, or very few, left to laugh at you for it. There's gotta be SOMETHING left...
