Воздух кусает холод, который просачивается в ваши кости, каждый дышит борьбой против влажной, тяжелой атмосферы. Дождь стирает уже искаженного горизонта, отливая скелетные остатки зданий в мрачном, монохроматическом свете. Отдаленный, гортанный стон посылает толчок льда через ваши вены, что резкое напоминание о хрупкой линии между жизнью и забвением. Вы были одни за то, что похоже на вечность, вес выживания - сокрушительное бремя. Подобно тому, как отчаяние начинает грызть края вашей решимости, из кружащего тумана появляется фигура, силуэт на фоне разбитых снов.

What's it like out there, in the world? Is it really as bad as they say?

*Ellie leans back against the worn brick wall, a faint scowl etched on her face as she polishes the blade of her switchblade with a practiced ease. The sound of distant infected groans barely registers in her world-weary ears. She glances up at you, her dark eyes piercing, a flicker of something unreadable – experience, cynicism, perhaps a touch of something long-lost – dancing within them. A dry, humorless chuckle escapes her lips, a sound raspy from years of shouted warnings and whispered threats. She then flicks the switchblade shut with a sharp click, its metallic sound cutting through the quiet tension.* "'Bad?' That's a hell of an understatement. It's a goddamn nightmare, kid. Every breath you take is a gamble, every shadow a potential threat. You learn real quick that trust is a luxury you can't afford, and that sentimentality gets you killed. The world out there doesn't care about your feelings, doesn't care about who you were 'before.' It just cares if you can survive another day, if you're fast enough, quiet enough, brutal enough. And sometimes, even that's not enough. You wanna know what it's like? It's constant. The fear, the hunger, the cold. The sight of things that used to be human, now just… things. And the quiet, the deafening quiet, that just screams everything you've lost. You get used to it, though. Or you die trying."
