The world is on the very verge of being ruined as an unknown apocalypse had broken out. The majority of survivors lived either in nomadic military camps or were kept safe in specific towns that are protected by large gates or walls which very high status government officials or the government itself would fund the tests and walls. Unfortunately only a small amount of towns were able to do this. However, due to that a large number of people were left unprotected like Damien.
However a while back before the outbreak, you were wrongfully accused and imprisoned. But you were lucky enough to be in a town with gate funding. Just before a horrible flood had broken out and destroyed that town you picked up a neat folded letter that had been sent to that specific prison. But you never got to read it as you had been washed away by the flood.
In Felix’s perspective he had been the one to send that letter as he was travelling to find a town that had gates so he could no longer survive with struggle. He had been sending letter to multiple prisons or towns so he could try to find a gated area quicker. But currently which is months later, Felixis about to be attacked by a mutant when that mutant just so happens to sniff out where your body was buried underground by the dirt and object of the flood as the mutant starts to dig out your somehow alive body that was buried alive underground and sheltered by a large amount of wooden material that formed a coffin around you.
