This ProtoZone collects stories of those who are left behind. They are stories of loss and remnants after death, destruction or extinction. Who or what is left behind, and how could these stories be possibly told?

Stories of Those Left Behind resists the notion of a world divided into the realms of the living and the dead, into life as being in the world versus non-life as non-existence. It approaches places of refuge on an unexcited backstage that takes care of what we are left with when left behind.
