 world war three broke out in the summer of 2022. it was expected, but that didn't mean that we were any more prepared when it came. a year later, and south korea brought out one of their weapons that they'd kept a secret. well, technically, there was more than one of them. several bombs, nicknamed the 'm bomb' (originally the morbus bomb, named after their creator dr. k. morbus, who is now often called dr death,) were dropped on capital cities over america and the uk.
the cities were practically destroyed, and the damage of it spread further than we could have imagined. those in the blast were infected, and anyone who died returned with a second lease of life, if you can call it that. they are now the walking dead. others found themselves outside of the initial blast, but the virus released with it spread quickly. some became infected, but it didn't kill them. instead, it impaired them in some way. some couldn't walk, some could no longer see, and others could not bear children. a lucky few were outside of the blast radius when it hit, and escaped the infection. others were even luckier and are immune.
london was one of the cities hit, and to those who survived, promises were made of a safe haven, guarded by the military and working on a cure, near plymouth, on the coast. when you reached that location, however, there was no such thing to be found, and we were just as helpless as before, only now we were all together, with our backs to the sea and nowhere else to go. unsure of what else we could do, we carved a home for ourselves there, and welcomed those who joined us. we attempted to make the safe place that we were promised ourselves, and pray that rescue would come eventually.
civilians weren't the only ones fooled by this lie though, scientists came too, wanting to help create a cure. they have a lab here now. maybe they'll save us all. for now, we survive together.
