~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The world is a horrific place. And no place is more revealing of this fact than Mandela, a small county where the average person regularly crosses paths with horrors beyond human comprehension. Every little detail could be the difference between life and death, and every mistake could be the reason you end up putting a gun to your head. In an instant, friends and family could just vanish, losing their lives at their own hands. When everything you've ever had, everyone you could trust in this apocalypse, gets taken away from you, what motivates you to fight back? What is it that keeps you alive long enough to carry the names and legacies of the ones you lost in this battle of psychological warfare to your grave? When 18-year-old Cesar Torres finds the dead body of his best friend, he is faced with these exact questions. Will he find the courage to fight to overcome his fears? Or will he be forced to fall to the same fate as the only person he had left to trust?
