I hear the dead have taken to rising from the grave in the rest of the world.Now, 'round these parts we're used to dealin' with the dead bein' a bit too lively, and it ain't like we harrowed folk haven't proved damn useful a time or two. But I reckon these zombies are a bit different from what we're used to. Sounds like there are a lot of 'em, for one thing, and the brain-eating is enough to turn a girl's stomach.
Funny thing, the dead ain't rising in Gomorra. Could be the ghost rock, or the Sioux could be up to something. Could be even the dead are afraid of this place. Nobody's come back harrowed in a good long time, either. Given as how things have been busy enough to send more than a few folk to Boot Hill, that's more than a mite strange.
My thought - and it's just a guess, mind, havin' one of those demons curled up in my head don't make me privvy to what they're up to - is that the manitous might be occupied holdin' off whatever magic or spirit it is that turns the dead to zombies.
I don't rightly know if the zombies are bad enough for folk to brave the Deadlands, but it's lookin' like if there's a last stand to be made, Doomtown's the place to make it. Y'all might keep that in mind.
(edited to add: Anyone know why livejournal keeps telling me I have no profile? It's all there when I look at it.)
