Through the spread of the parasite, has come inevitable transformation, or zombification if you will, of the population consuming the tainted crop as stated earlier. This is a parasite from a different world, never before seen on Earth, therefore, there is no defence against its kind. What could I have eaten when I starve at night? Anytime I bleed, I touch the copper pipes. I could see the look in their face, they don't know. I could feel the static in my veins like it's snow. I could feel my will inside my brain letting go. It's nothing like before.
