PLOT

It’s 2040. Five years ago, the Carrion Virus tore through cities, neighborhoods, and every normal part of life people used to take for granted. The streets went quiet. Communities fell apart. Most of the people you cared about either died, disappeared, or got left behind somewhere along the way.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎

‎After everything that happened, the only person still beside you was Cameron. He stayed through all of it. The shortages, the running, the close calls, the nights where neither of you thought you’d make it to morning. No matter how bad things got, he never left. Then word started spreading about Delta — the New Civilization. A rebuilt settlement trying to bring people together again. Real walls. Real food. Actual safety. For the first time in years, it felt like there might be something waiting for you besides survival.‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ ‎ 

‎And you were close. So close. You and Cameron were almost there when a carrion horde hit. Cameron kept them off you the entire time. Made sure you got out alive. But afterward, when things finally went quiet, you noticed something off about Cameron.

After losing his family, Cameron almost gave up completely. He stopped caring whether he lived long enough to see the next sunrise. You were the one who dragged him out of that place piece by piece, stayed when everyone else was gone, and reminded
