[The Low Lying Lands 01] • Blood and Chaos

This Volume is the Collected Low Lying Lands Saga so far. It includes Music City Macabre, Pops, and Arch City Apocalypse.

Music City Macabre: His name is Prescott. He is a survivor. Two years ago an event known as The Descent swept the nation and transformed the majority of the population into raging, destructive beings, known as FREAKS. During that time Prescott has been searching for his sister Emily, who went missing in the early days of the catastrophic event.

Prescott enters The 88, a bar which all his gathered intelligence has led him to believe, he will finally find his missing sister. What he discovers will shock him to his very core.

Choosing to run instead of facing his emotions Prescott lands in Nashville, TN, where a vicious war lord named Kade, rules the destroyed city with his congregation of Freaks.

It is here where Prescott will learn that family can grow from the ashes of devastation, love is still possible, and hope is eternal.

Pops: It is known as The Descent. The event that brought on the fall of humanity and unleashed the violent, hungry Freaks upon the World. The mysterious pirate radio voice Doctor Midnite has called for the Regulars—the humans—who are left to "Take it back." Jonathan "Pops" Poplovitch and his team of "Exterminators" answered the call and attempted to take down the nefarious Admiral Shen, who'd set up shop in Columbus, Ohio. They failed.

Pops has been mortally wounded in his final battle with Shen. In his final moments Pops recalls pivotal moments of his life. In his final testimony, as he confronts his own mortality in the presence of an unseen listener, Pops will learn his greatest lesson.

Arch City Apocalypse: After the events of Music City Macabre Prescott, Cole, Shields, and Lexi take to the road as a newly formed unit. Brought together by their individual tragedies in the Descent, the friends now work to build hope. To 'Take it Back.'

During a brief pit stop at the Normal Safe Zone, they are visited by travel-weary neighbors and soon make their way to Fort Wayne, Indiana.

After hearing the latest broadcast from the mysterious Doctor Midnite, they head to Columbus, Ohio. The Arch City. It is there they meet the nefarious Admiral Shen and his sidekick Rebecca, and where they face their their toughest challenge.

For in the Arch City nothing is as it seems, the Protectorate are getting involved, and not everyone makes it out alive.
