“Sand Castle” by Alessandro Ubaldi
In an undefined future where mankind have voluntarily abandoned technology to live back in nomadism, an old man initiates a kid to the reasons of humanity’s return to nature. Apparently teleportation had something to do with it.
The elderly explains how mankind’s ancient dream of progress has brought to a limit-breaking society always in search for further steps to overcome. That was what happened in mobility, until the invention of human teleportation. This would have changed the game and from that point something mutated forever. With the encounter of an abandoned tele-port the wiseman reveals the rest of the story. In doing this he introduces his young companion to a fundamental question about our own species.
