Before the apocalypse, Whittaker Town was surrounded by green trees and all sorts of vegetation. Walking here now, however, only highlighted its decay and ruin.
All the trees had become dry, hollow husks that shattered at the slightest touch.
Various piles of lumber had been stacked on both sides of the road, but they had all since rotted away.
Amidst this decay, a vine silently emerged from the ground, inching its way toward the pair's ankles.
"Come on out," Nina Jacobs said.
Among the forest of hollow trunks, there was a patch of crushed ground. A careful look would reveal that someone might be hiding there.
Not to mention the killing intent that was impossible to ignore.
The vine stopped in its tracks. A moment later, a familiar figure stepped out from behind a pile of rotten wood.
It was Holly Morgan.
Her gaze was filled with an unyielding hatred.
Perhaps it was the last shred of her sanity that kept her from going on a rampage.
