The Rising: A Year Later
Hard to believe it has been a year since the Rising first took place. I know there are those that are loathe to actually admit to what took place. I can't honestly conceive of how they can remain in denial about it. They would say it was just a wide spread infection like the Influenza pandemic of 1918 and all those folks wandering around were simply ill. Yeah, that explains why the newly dead were rising and trying to eat people. Call it whatever you want, but living in denial of the truth is dangerous. It was zombies. They're still out there. I should know, I'm assigned to the patrol that will be going out this evening to try to keep the number of strays in the area low. They seem to be attracted to each other and will congregate in one area if not given the proper discouragement. The proper discouragement in most cases being a 12-gauge blast to the cranium.
There is certainly a lot to reflect upon on this dubious anniversary date. I'm surprised by some of the luxuries that are still being maintained. I wonder if we will ever have some semblance of a real government again or if we will revert back to some sort of sovereign by township system?
Oh...I've been alerted that we need to gather for a briefing. I will come back to this before my shift, if I can.
