"The thing is, Faye... We think you're different" "No need to say that. I know that I'm different" Faye is a 15 year old girl who lives in the new state of Snowlark, NY in the year 2894. The government has changed, so has politics in general. There are no more racists, no more groups against each other. Everyone at least SEEMS to be equal. Now that is where Faye's story starts. In Snowlark, NY. She was born near the carnival, which was held every year on September 9th. The group of people that worked there loved to hang out with her and care for her. They didn't care about the color of her skin or of her past. They took her in as their own anyways. She would see people come and go. Faye would make friends. And she even developed her own family. Until they all left... because of her... They left the day she was bitten. And she was not bitten by a dog or some other animal. She was bitten by a mutated creature. The creature which infects many and then leaves them to rot. They are the ones who are despised. Later on, everyone was given a nickname. The healers were called "medicates," because they would have to take odd pills to stay sane. The infected were called "victims," the name is self explanatory. Some tried to say that everyone is equal, and that the victims cannot harm others if they can find a cure. But the government officials think the only way they can be safe is if they are isolated. And not just the victims. They think everyone should be isolated. Everyone is abandoned by the government. Maybe some will pick a side, maybe some will rebel. The options are endless.

The ice deep in the north has melted to reveal a new world hidden under the ice. It holds vegetation and animals that seem unworldly when compared to ours, but hidden in the deepest part of this world is another cave with the oldest surviving strains of an ancient bacteria capable of taking host of dead creatures and reanimating them into beasts worse than before. This strain had grown weak over the ages and was nearly extinct, but the human immune system, never being exposed to this, caused the strain to thrive inside its new unexpecting host and spreads out to the world. It starts small, just a speck on the hands of a few people, but soon, it spreads to door handles, pens, books, chairs, things like that. It continues spreading and now has infected its first corpse, the remains of an ant. This new creature comes and spreads to that ant's nest and then to the animals that eat them. Before less than a month passed, the virus had spread to a graveyard in the hidden grottos of the Yukon. This virus, now able to think from the new minds of fresh bodies, can strategize. In only another week, the epidemic had spread to the northern edge of the United States. Spreading further and further in, people began to notice this strange happening. From people disappearing to entire towns popping out of existence, the bacteria continued to spread. To keep order, the governments had those who disappeared erased from existence, but it wasn't enough. The takeover of those long gone happened in less than three weeks and society collapsed. Spreading overseas, it began its removal of life in Europe, but that's a story for another day. We now come to those few remaining settlements in the collapsed U.S, now called The Crumbled Land. What does this new land hold hidden deep in the remnants of its former glory?
