Welcome to The Steam Empire! In this Steampunk alternate history, the London-based  East India Trading Company is conquering the world. Already, they control all of the South Pacific except for a collection of rebel outposts. They have struck an alliance with the Russian Empire in hopes of using them as partners to conquer and control Asia and the Middle East. 
  
  Meanwhile, The United States is entering its fifth year of the Mexican-American War. They have continued the campaign south in an effort to control Central and South America for all its riches. Their grip of Mexico is firm from the Rio Grande to Mexico City, yet south of that is still in the midst of war. Their army, now stretched thin, may provide the perfect opportunity for the EITC to expand their territory. 

The fall of the world seems imminent. Only you can stop the enemy, and restore peace.

The Virus Within: The Unranked (Book 4)

50 parts Complete

Season 4 of The Virus Within Trinity is familiar with zombies, being one herself, but when strange zombies start appearing, she realizes that the world she knew might be changing yet again. When a dangerous set of scientific notes are discovered, Trinity and her friends don't realize anything is wrong until a frantic radio call comes in. Unaware of the notes, they race to the south and struggle to determine where the strange zombies came from. The zombies are unlike any ranks previously seen, and they aren't as predictable. Some have new tricks hidden up sleeves, forcing any Stronghold they encounter to quickly adapt to the new challenge or risk being overrun. Secrets never remain hidden, and zombie apocalypses never make life easy.
