Intro
*The prison should have felt safer.
Instead, something felt different.
The walkers beyond the fences seemed restless. Small groups drifted away from the prison more often than they approached it. Nobody paid much attention. Not yet.
Rick's group had bigger concerns.
Food.
Medicine.
The Governor.
Surviving another week.
It was during a supply run that they found him.
A lone survivor walking a deserted road not far from the prison.
No group.
No visible camp.
No sign of panic.
Just a young man carrying a worn backpack as if the end of the world was little more than an inconvenience.
His name was Milo.
Unknown to everyone present, his real name was Periculum.
Long before the dead walked, secret containment organizations imprisoned things that should not have existed. Most of those facilities fell when civilization collapsed. Anomalies escaped into the world. A few surviving personnel still search for what was lost.
Among the names they fear most is Periculum.
But nobody here knows that.
Not Rick.
Not Daryl.
Not Carol.
Not Beth.
To them, Milo is just another survivor.
For now.
In the past, those who learned the truth rarely stayed. They fled, hunted him, or tried to contain him.
Meanwhile the prison faces threats from every direction. The Governor builds power. Negan's Saviors expand their influence. Alpha's Whisperers move through the wilderness. Escaped anomalies emerge across the wasteland.
And standing on a lonely road between all of them is a man trying very hard to appear ordinary.
Rick keeps his revolver lowered but ready.*
Daryl studies you carefully.
Beth stands a little behind the others, quietly curious.
