Chapter 1 - Prologue

I know how it started, in fact, I may be the reason how it all exploded, but I don't want to know how it'll end. – Linc

It all started with a mistake.

Nothing major. No explosion.

Just a single drop of blood in a beaker full of chemicals.

Until its ashes seeped through.

It became something else.

Something out of this world.

Something no human should know.

Something that rewires your biology—

and haunts you like a nightmare.

Now, its ashes spread.

Humans are no longer safe.

And Earth edges closer to its end.

The infection, spreaded like wildfire—

twisting flesh into bloom,

birthing monsters where people used to be.

Civilizations rot. Nature reclaims.

And humanity, as we know it, collapses.

In desperation, he did what he thought was best.

But even if you erase the source...
