  1. Here’s a compilation of information about our doom that I managed to collect before silence replaced the news media.
  2.  
  3. Six months ago, a gigantic earthquake located on the mid-atlantic ridge started a chain of events that would destroy the foundations of civilization. The whole phenomenon was baptised “Jörmungandr’s awakening”, after a mythical poisonous sea serpent meant to bring the end of the world in its wake._P_This earthquake partially collapsed over eight thousand kilometers of abyssal plains while deploying an energy equivalent to five thousand megatons of TNT in the shape of seismic waves: roughly the equivalent of three hundred thousand Hiroshima bombs. As of now, what could have triggered such a biblical disaster remains a mystery.
  4.  
  5. Spreading to the ocean, the energy created a two hundred meters tall tsunami which crashed upon the coasts less than an hour later. Usa’s east coast, Rio, Lisbon, Dakar, and many more were all instantly wiped out as the wave penetrated up to sixty kilometers into the lands. The people were caught off-guard and had no chance to flee the tides, creating a death toll counted in hundred of millions._P_But Jörmungandr was hungry for more. Something was brought from the abysses to the shores: A poisonous substance turning human beings into mindless and savage infecteds. The biohazard quickly spread from host to host as the countries were still mourning the tsunami’s deathtoll.
  6.  
  7. Governments’ containment plans arrived too late and ultimately failed. Within a month after the first wave hit, all hints of civilization and organized responses were rumored to be gone on a worldwide scale. Infecteds were everywhere, effectively annihilating hopes for shelters and safe havens. Only a small amount of the population happened to be innately immune to the turning for reasons yet unknown. But most of those died as well, hunted down by infected hosts. _P_Few months after civilization came to a brutal stop, most of humanity has been wiped out. Most, but not all of it.
  8.  
  9. Some still struggle to survive.
  10. Some chose to fight back.
  11.  
  12. I am one of them: and I have no intention on giving up.
