replace index.php with index.html The index doesn’t have to be a PHP file since there is no need to generate the list of chapters anew every time the ToC is opened. Instead, the list of chapters is generated once, ahead of time, and saved to the index.html. As an added bonus, this allows the ToC to be generated and used as a local file.

They get off at a station near the city center - a place that is never
asleep. In contrast to the empty stations everywhere else, the stations
here are busy with people seeking entertainment, clubs, or the many bars.
Lucas hurries down the stairs; Annie follows him.
</p>
<p>
The streets are alive with people, seeminly few of them purposefully
moving in a specific direction; most of them are just meandering from
bar to bar. The street they are walking down is illuminated by strings
of lights hanging from the buildings and between street lights. The
muffled bass of techno coming from one of the buildings is in the air.
She enjoys the atmosphere, she hadn&apos;t been here in a little while.
</p>
<p>
Lucas turns left and enters one of the bars, Annie still following him.
They make their way through the crowded bar towards the counter. The air
feels dense and depleted, and carries the smell of alcohol. Live
musicians are playing <span class="comment"> Idk? Music genre? Need ideas
</span> on a small stage area in the corner. <br />

Coffee sounds good... The back room? Annie raises an eyebrow. He opens a
door next to the counter and gestures her to follow.

Lucas takes off his hoodie and hangs it on a hook on the wall. Annie does
the same with her jacket. She looks into the room: A bunch of people
sitting around a large, round table - to her surprise including her
grandpa. <br />

<span class="speech">We are working on getting the city officials to
change their stance on some things. When the city was built, it was seen
as sort of a plan B for humanity in case things would get worse.
It wasn&apos;t built as a place where we could go and hide forever in
isolation. Over time, knowledge of the outside world stopped being an
imagination of a possible bright future, and instead it became something
to be worried about. &#8216;What do you mean, you want to go there?
Do you really want to go where the air you breathe is literal poison
and die?&apos;</span>

hope on his part - that it would get better one day and that we could
open up the airlocks and leave. That was many, many years ago. It&apos;s

hope on his part, we should at least take a look outside and see for
ourselves what it&apos;s like.</span><br />
