To whoever finds this, I am probably already long dead. You might need some help remembering what got us here,, so here... On 1:00 pm April 30th, 2043, the organization known as the Global Coalition Association sent missiles into the sky and detonated them, releasing an airborne virus codenamed: Overlord. This wasn't your normal virus, it messed with people's heads, it scarred them, made them do the coalition's bidding. I was one of many who were somehow resistant, but I wasn't immune. The virus has changed me, I can't feel anything anymore, my whole body is numb except for the lesions the virus opened up on my skin, so my lower body is now almost completely covered in bandages. My eyes are red and sensitive to light, so I wear tinted goggles to keep myself from going blind. The only true company I have had in my travels is the Lord Jesus Christ, the pocket Bible I own is the only thing keeping me thinking straight, that and this journal...I hope whoever finds this journal can use my knowledge to survive and try to reclaim our Eden...so long trooper.
Sincerely Joshua Galen
