Here's something a little different: a TNO custom series following the aftermath of a thermonuclear war through the various postapocalyptic events that pop up even after the world goes silent. And yes, Omsk starts its Great Trial prematurely here.

Despite the horrors of such an Atomic Armageddon and the destruction of civilization across much of the world, it isn't the end of history. Despite all the trials, sufferings and hardships...the madness of Himmler, Omsk's Great Trial, and even the searing flames fade away. Humanity, in various societies old and new, finds a way to survive. This is also reflected in how the events themselves gradually turn from dire and bleak to being much more hopeful. Time, after all, heals all sorrows.

For some trivia, the events shown are only a small sample of what would likely pop up during the post-nuclear war "phase" of the mod. While variations are aplenty, depending on which nations and leaders were responsible or dominant, the last two are bound to consistently show. Moreover, on top of using the infamous "Nuke Atmosphere" track from the unreleased Paradox title "East vs. West" ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0y6wA_iNNo ), the background music used is "One Last Message" from the "Violet Evergarden" OST ( https://youtu.be/tWOgvaDcC-w ). With the quality, mirroring the events being shown on the reels, gradually improving with the passing of time. It seemed rather...fitting.

While at the very end is a snippet of "0001" from the Mobile Suit: Gundam Unicorn OST ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dvb2Rwfi-98 ) mixed with the Apollo 11 landing audiologs.
