I've seen my own darkened sun.
(Alejandra Pizarnik, Garden or Time)

She'll regret it in the end; surviving.

Living is what turned her into a monster. The hopeless possibility of reuniting with her brother and grandfather kept her alive—yet it destroyed her. That hope burned into wrath, which made a once innocent, radiant girl come to be a sinful, tragic woman.

Vienna had no choice but to surround herself with survivors who seemed to lose their sense of humanity. The lethal group of abandoned souls she stayed with raided camps and killed survivors for their own entertainment. They never had mercy for others, but fortunately, there was a good man amongst the rut who vowed to protect Vienna the day he met her.

      Dean Wallace kept her alive while she kept him sane. Day by day, the girl saved him from his own cruel demise.

But, after one wicked survivor crossed the line with Vienna—Dean ultimately decided to flee the unreliable, immoral group of men.

     The two ran. They disappeared into dusk, fading into the burning land of the dead. But, instead of finding serenity, they are met with sinister chaos at dawn and clash with another pair of survivors—Mitch Haines and Carl Grimes, which sparks a flame of tension. And with the mournful bloom of a seething gunshot, Vienna's life alters for the better and the worse.

Now, death twitches in her ear, telling her to live. Little by little, she'll find forgiveness and love in this blazing world while she fights a deadly war with her sanity.
