The Zombie reaches out his hand after everything he's tried.

What if he's found a way to wash the soil aside?

I can feel his fingertips touching my lips.

He speaks:

I am justified.

I am purified.

I am sanctified.

I can see the stars inside you.

His face melts into a shifting mass of Hell.

He knows exactly what I can't resist.

I stare into the torture with fascination and terror.

The melting flesh smells of carcass and candle wax, and I can't escape my horror.
