    Summary

    "You're kind. That's a rare quality to have in this world. And it's the best thing about you."
    The words that were once meant as a compliment now remind you every day that you are not fit for this world.

    This world preys on the weak. The kind.
    It's a miracle you've made it this far.

     

    "Stay on the move. Avoid crowds. Boil and filter every drop of water. Pack light. Never eat a white mushroom."

     

     

    A survivor crosses paths with a silent man in the ruins of the world. She wasn’t looking for company, but having someone to travel with can’t hurt, right? Besides, they’re heading in the same direction, and it’s only temporary.

    But something about the man haunts our protagonist. What kind of hell did he crawl out of? What is his damage?
    And why won't he speak?
