Mathew survived the entire two weeks of the apocalypse. A great score for someone blessed with brains over the brawn. Yet, even he fell after just fourteen days, giving his all to save the one person he cared for.

But why does a death looks like watching himself from the third person perspective? Is this the purgatory to watch over his own shoulders at the mistakes he made? A punishment for Mathew's sins to repeat those mistakes over and over again?

Outside, hostile neighbors eye his weakened lands, ready to tear it apart at the first sign of weakness.This is a tale of ruthless ambition, cunning strategy, and relentless struggle.
