The world has been thoroughly devastated as a nightmarish growth suddenly emerged from the middle of a great city of technological marvels, absorbing its people for sustenance and spitting out what remains of its victims as twisted creatures that now serve its ruthless will to subjugate, sacrifice and slaughter all living things to satiate its ravenous hunger. The unknown threat has sucked the world nearly dry of resources, pulling everything it touches slowly into its fleshy mass and replacing them with its chaotic labyrinthian and living machinery only built to serve its own needs.
