World/Setting
Sometime in the very near future, a virus broke out that turned half of the world’s inhabitants - animals and humans alike - into zombies. No one knows the cause or how it started… And at this point, nobody cares. After the initial panic, the living realized the undead weren’t the hostile, brain-eating hoard often portrayed in the media. The zombies retained their identity; they just often lost their train of thought, didn’t need certain bodily functions, and - as one newscaster put it - “they move at a very leisurely pace”. It was less of an apocalypse and more like the invasion of grandparents.
Thus, humanity continues to march forward… Albeit more slowly and stiffly.
