Relics

In a far future Europe, following a four-thousand-year Dark Age of which man has little record or memory, an enigmatic scroll is found in a train car that has lain buried deep within the Scandinavian snow and ice since the cataclysmic end of the First Age. The document, which contains a cryptic message meant for the world before it died, finds its way into the hands of a young man who is destined to journey across the continent seeking its translation.
