July 7, 1815 Kingdom of Denmark-Norway, Copenhagen
Known within this world as the Blight, this unknown infectious disease has an extremely high mortality rate. If one dies from this plague while burdened by sin, they are resurrected as a zombie. Returning to their own bodies, they grow jealous of the living and begin attacking people to turn them into creatures like themselves. Thousands of corpses began to rise in Moscow, marking the point where the Blight truly began to spread. Starting with the dead who rose in Moscow, corpses began to reanimate across Europe, and the plague slowly began to destroy the entire continent.

“The once-prosperous capital of Denmark is now engulfed in the flames of war and reduced to ashes. But zombies are not the only enemy.”


July 7, 1815 AD, Copenhagen, Kingdom of Denmark-Norway.
This place, once a prominent European city, has now become a ruin covered in flames and smoke. It was the two research vessels returning from Vardøhus Fortress that sowed the seeds of this entire catastrophe.
The thing called the Blight was an unknown infectious disease with an extremely high mortality rate, and those who fell dead returned to their own bodies and began to bare their teeth at the living. This disaster, which began in Moscow, slowly encroached upon all of Europe.
Copenhagen was no exception. Reanimated corpses roamed the streets throughout the city, and the Royal Navy, having blockaded the city, rained down Congreve rockets, turning the entire city into a sea of fire.
