The dead don't hunt by sight.
They hunt by sound.
Minji has learned how to survive in the quiet - how to move without leaving echoes, how to carry grief without letting it make noise. Being alone is safer. Being alone is survival.
Then she hears footsteps where there shouldn't be any.
A gun. A breath held too long. A stranger in the ruins who isn't infected - and isn't harmless either.
In a world where one sound can end everything, trust is dangerous, attachment is louder than screams, and silence is the only thing keeping them alive.
Some things are worth risking the noise for.
Some aren't.
