Werifesteria: Stray dogs surviving in a post-human world

"Though the world was raised by human hand...

For many years, the humans of Kah'ren have waged a war against the many clans of canna that share their town. No matter how they try to push them out of the city, the resilient street dogs prevail and continue to grow in number. The town decides that something must be done once and for all to rid themselves of this problem. Humans band together to track down stray dog packs and capture as many as they can. For many days, they persist, and many dogs are caught and thrown into the local shelter to await their fate.

Then, something inexplicable happens. A great earthquake rocks the town. The shelter begins to crumble and split apart. Many dogs escape and run for safety. When the dust settles, they realize that their world has changed. The entire town is quiet and empty. Humans are gone. Their clans are gone. Even the town itself is different. Only slices of the town remain as it was before. The rest is overgrown with vast wilderness, completely cutting them off from any remnant of "civilization."

The canna were blessed with a new world free of humanity, but it came at a great expense. They were permanently separated from their clans, families, and caretakers. Many depended on humans to provide them with scraps of food to feed their families. They must now learn how to conquer this new land on their own. 

"Canna now rules all the land."
