Exile is the Romeo-and-Juliet story of two lovers separated by much more than just a family feud. In a not-too-distant future, much of the world's population has been wiped out. Due to war, plague or natural disaster (the cause is never specified) those who remain have been segregated into two very different and distinct societies. The "Elite" live a life of luxury above ground in a paradise of fresh air, opulent surroundings, easy sex and available beauty. Below ground, in the Stygian darkness of a polluted, industrial hell, are the "Exiles," born into a life of servitude, working the machinery that makes the Elite lifestyle possible.
