| - | A spinoff of **//[[timelines:Protect and Survive]]//**, written by [[offtopic:DrakonFin]]. It is set in his native Finland and chronicles how the little country coped with both the coming and aftermath of The Exchange in the cold winter months of early 1984. Many of the main chapters are prefaced by aptly chosen songs from various Finnish bands and singers, old and new. In addition to these, the chapters often include glimpses into future Finland (of the late 2000s), with the framing device being historians and archivists interviewing various survivors of the 1984 war and collecting their oral histories about that era. | + | A [[protect and survive spinoffs|spinoff]] of **//[[timelines:Protect and Survive]]//**, written by [[offtopic:DrakonFin]].
