Mystery
In the once-thriving city of Nooma, a scientist's secret project spiraled into a nightmare. While working on a virus as a personal experiment, his daughter accidentally consumed the pathogen, triggering a terrifying transformation. Driven by desperation, the scientist studied her, clinging to hope for a cure. However, his efforts failed. One fateful day, she attacked him and escaped, only to succumb to the infection's final stage: she morphed into a grotesque, tree-like organism. These "infected trees" spread the virus through their black, spiked roots, infecting animals who carried the disease to the city, marking the start of the apocalypse. The Fight for Survival As the infection spreads uncontrollably, a group of unlikely allies bands together to combat the outbreak. United by their shared losses and the desperate hope of finding a cure, they must navigate the horrors of the apocalypse, uncover hidden truths, and fight to rebuild what remains of humanity. Accompanied by haunting melodies like "Something Stupid" by Frank and Nancy Sinatra, this is a story of resilience, humanity, and the lengths people will go to survive.
