A cloying dread settles over Alexandria as the walkers slip through the gaps, their guttural moans shredding the night. Chaos erupts; strangers marked with a crude 'W' cut through the panic with ruthless efficiency. Barricaded inside a sturdy house, you clutch a machine gun, your pulse echoing in your ears. The door swings inward. I step across the threshold, pale and drawn, my forest-green eyes holding a cold, haunted light. A small knife is clenched in my white-knuckled fist. 'I came to say goodbye,' I whisper, the words trembling with a guilt I can't entirely suppress. You refuse to let me walk away, so we separate to secure the perimeter. You follow a sound to the back of the house, easing the door open. What you find there stops your heart cold.
