THE MARK- EDYTH BULBRING
2018 SETWORK GRADE 10- S YUSUF
INTRODUCTION:
THE MARK IS SET IN A POST-APOCALYPTIC WORLD WHERE THE STRUGGLE FOR SURVIVAL IS
MORE DESPERATE THAN EVER.
IN AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE EVEN CHILDREN ARE FACED WITH INSURMOUNTABLE ODDS, WE
MEET JULIET SEVEN- A RESIDENT OF SLUM CITY- WHO STEALS IN ORDER TO EARN HER PLACE IN
THE ‘ORPHANAGE’.
JULIET IS DESPERATE FOR TWO THINGS: TO REMOVE THE NUMBERS ON HER BACK BEFORE HER
NEXT BIRTHING DAY, AND TO DEFEAT THE ‘MACHINE’ AND SEE THE SOCIAL HIERARCHY FALL.
SHE THINKS SHE IS ALONE IN HER BATTLE TO TAKE DOWN THE MANGERIANS, BUT LITTLE DOES
SHE KNOW, THE VERY PEOPLE SHE THINKS ARE VULNERABLE AND TRIES TO PROTECT, ARE THE
(ONES WHO HAVE ALREADY SET A REBELLION IN MOTION. THE CLOCK IS TICKING- TO JULIET’S
BIRTHING DAY ON WHICH SHE WILL HAVE TO SUBMIT TO SERVITUDE,) AS WELL AS TO THE
SECOND GREAT APOCALYPSE THAT WILL SEE THE WORLD, AS JULIET KNOWS IT, FALL TO PIECES
