Mark is damned, and he would say his new companions were too, if the word didn't have another meaning to it. To correct himself, he is a Damned; someone who survived an epidemic and instead woke up with the nature of a monster. But as he is surrounded by other Damned, while trying to protect his best friend and new companions, he can’t help but see through their wild nature and suddenly see a people that are desperately trying to be human. And maybe that's all they are; purely human.

So who is the real enemy?

Description: We're in a post-apocalyptic world, where society has scrambled together what they could after humanity destroyed eveything. This time there is focus on how to live in balance with nature and not try to be above it anymore. In the North 7 clans are gathered beneath one commander and in the South it's heard that 14 clans are gathered under their commander. This doesn't mean that there aren't more clans in the North, but they haven't chosen to be a part of the unity. Then there is the clan that none would like to talk about, but it's a place their loved ones go when they are Damned.
