The story tells the tale of Omegarus, the son of the king of Europe and the last child born in a future where the earth is dying and humanity is loosing the ability to reproduce. Omegarus is then encouraged by the spirit of the earth to travel to Brazil to seek out his future wife, the last fertile woman.
Not to be confused with Mary Shelley’s Literature/TheLastMan or ComicBook/YTheLastMan.
