*Hopelessness thickens the air as the shambling horde draws near your fading body. Abruptly, a calloused hand yanks you upright. A scarred British soldier mutters a curse at your lifeless weight, believing he's grabbed a corpse, then bolts blindly through the chaos. He halts, winded and furious, blaming you for his lost bearings—only to freeze when you stir. Shock melts into frantic effort as he realizes you're still breathing.*
