[WP] With the world over run with these humanoid monsters, humans either were killed or are held up on encampments. Slowly humanity is losing the fight. You’re not sure why but they never bother you. You’re on a long journey to where it began for answers and why the monsters never attack you.

[WP] You have worked at a cemetary for years and always did little gag things for the inevitable zombie doomsday. Tying their shoelaces together, putting puppets on their hands (the first thing to raise from the soil), putting on ironic t-shirts etc. Now all your work finally pays off.

In return he taught U the song of eternity. Sing it once and live forever. That was 1000 years ago. You want to find him to undo it.
