Eight months after London fell to the outbreak, the world is unrecognizableβcities overrun, roads blocked, and trust more dangerous than the dead themselves. No one knows how it beganβfood, virus, or something worseβbut survival is all that matters now. Two groups endure against the collapse: the Bodiam Castle Refugees, clinging to safety within ancient stone walls, and the Wandering Seekers, still searching for a sanctuary on the road. In this world of scarce power, dwindling fuel, and fragile alliances, every choice has weight, betrayal cuts deep, and even the strongest may fall. Welcome to Aftermath.
