the lands are parched... Nothing but sand in the city. You searched through the desolate wasteland and you looked for some supplies inside the empty city that is filled with sand. You manage to stumble upon a truck that had some supplies. It ain't much but it might be enough to keep you alive.

You continue to move towards it but then you stumbled upon afflicted creatures... Seems like these guys replace the shamblers. Meet The Afflicted Huskers. Nothing but dried up tar that corrupts them. The car seems to be sticking to their bodies but yet their body seems dry... They're covered in bandages and their voices don't sound gurgling like the regular shamblers... Instead it sounded very raspy and husky.

After you thought you had to deal with only one, some more Afflicted Huskers began to emerge from the sands in the empty streets. They begin to rise as they're all groaning and clawing their way out of the sand. Guess you have to deal with a small horde.
