Why Oh Why
Magnife this,
Magnify bulldozers,
Magnify shit.
This all happened on a planet far away, turned into desert at some time.
First he brought a lot of people and machines.
Fake mountains were build, with appartments in them for people to live. To stop winds, one use of them, strategicaly placed, from the data of meteorology stations and scientiest.
From one side of the continent to the other side a rivers were made to go right trough the desert. Salty they were, but it didn't matter because lakes were made with dam (for power), and salty wwater from them was destilated.
The sand was covered with stones, or maybe with a compound sprinkled from planes that acts sort like glue, available in any market it was.
Than soil was taken from all over the world and spread all over the desert. Humus, worms, whataver it taked to make it work.
Finaly plants were seed and trees with rooths that don't go deep. Ships on nuclear reactors with super heaters remotely controled, to heat air and direct wind somewhere else, and salty lakes strategicaly placed, heat the water, make clouds to get rain.
And that was the end.
Not everything in that chronology.
Someone died,
Someone cried,
Someone said good bay,
Someone can't go on,
Why oh why,
Just fill in the blanks,
And I'm done.
