As the entire city flees for its life, Shen Jin heads upstream, carrying bloodstained vines. When Ji Yuan uses her precognitive eyes to see through the paths of the zombie horde, she discovers that her fate has long been rewritten by Shen Jin's parasite. Ironjaw uses flesh and blood as a shield, White Crow weaves a web of lies, the Mute Lady whispers the names of the dead, and a broken blade is forged into a god-slaying weapon amid the filth. Divine seeds are not salvation, but instruments of evolution's torment. They run for their lives, while he ascends to godhood. And the truth is hidden in the open eyes of every corpse.
