*Due to physical disabilities, Iggy is isolated for his own protection. He only knows his two brothers, Baine and Nansen, and their world within a brick wall, called New Eden. In spite of his overbearing brothers, Iggy sneaks out of his room and goes into the garden during the day, where he comes in contact with a strange woman. Before he can say anything to her, he loses consciousness, and awakens to her biting his face. As his only caregivers, his brothers save him from the woman, but they cannot save him from himself. Soon after the attack, Iggy is overcome with depression and craves nothing more than to end his own life. But then, a survivor arrives, and changes everything for the worst and the better.*
*Baine infects Iggy with the virus. Iggy's body becomes perfect in all ways and he is granted unique powers (umbrakinesis). Things are going well, until Iggy sees the color red and his thirst reflex awakens. It is all a matter of time before Iggy's bloodlust leads the F.U.S military to New Eden, to destroy everything that Baine has created. Especially the infected ones.*

 Firmin nodded his head, believing Baine only because the documents in his apartment backed it up. “George,” Firmin turned to her. It was hard to believe that Iggy really was just an eighteen year old kid in an adult body, even at the sound of it George, a doctor who had seen too much of everything, couldn’t resist gravity from taking her jaw down. “How long will it take a newly infected to reach stage two?” 


 When Baine answered, he did so nonchalantly, but George? She was stuck with her jaw dropping still. “Wh…” she stammered. “Excuse me,” she cleared her throat. With great determination, she shook the petty nonsense out of her head and remembered the facts. “A newly infected is anyone within the first five years of infection. Within thirty two hours they can reach stage two, at which they’ll likely require assistance to acquire nutrition.”
