The premise of Ravagers without spoilers.

In 1991, civilization has collapsed, leaving a lawless wasteland of violence, hunger and horror. The few survivors are organized into two factions—the ruthless Ravagers and the scavenging Flockers. An adventurer and his companion, a so‑called “pleasure girl,” journey across the desolate landscape in search of the rumored sanctuary known as the Land of Genesis.
