In a world where darkness has reigned for a century, humanity clings to existence in the fortified Texas settlement of Kerrville. The viral apocalypse that once threatened to extinguish mankind has become distant history-children grow up thinking virals are merely exaggerated boogeymen in scary stories. Peter Jaxon, now fifty-one and serving as president, oversees a society beginning to forget the horrors that shaped it. The walls go unmanned, perimeter lights burn out without repair, and people venture beyond the settlement's boundaries to establish homesteads in the wilderness. This false security creates a poignant tension. What if the monsters aren't gone, but waiting? Meanwhile, in the ruins of New York City, Timothy Fanning-brilliant biochemist turned Patient Zero-dwells in Grand Central Terminal beneath its astronomical ceiling, ironically painted backward to show the heavens from God's perspective rather than man's. This inverted perspective perfectly symbolizes Fanning's distorted worldview. For decades, he has waited with terrible patience, gathering strength and plotting humanity's final destruction. Behind his monstrous exterior beats the heart of a jilted lover who couldn't move beyond his pain-his century-long campaign against humanity represents his twisted attempt to give meaning to his suffering. What makes this apocalypse so haunting isn't just its scale but its intimacy. Behind every monster lurks a human story. Behind every survival, a sacrifice.
