***Reader Discretion is Advised***

Depictions of gore, death, mortal and moral suffering, cruelty, guerilla warfare, general savagery and subjects of other visceral nature should be expected. If such considerations are too much, kindly do not continue reading.

Further Note: I am attempting to publish the first few chapters once a week, whereas further chapters shall take an unspecified amount of time. With luck, a release every other week.

A generous appreciation to those who read on and put their thoughts into the comments. God Bless.
