There was a rumor that in this world, there was a girl. When the end had started, she was only five. Five years later, they say she still lived. Not that she was being protected. Rumor says at first she was with a large number of people, all capable of fighting.

However, in this world, not only was being able to fight important, but so was avoiding getting bitten.

One by one they left until it was only her and her father, but as it always seems to go, something went wrong.

Rumor says within a year, she was on her own. No protection.

At least none from humans.

"If you stay with me, you will never die, but you will never rest."

Rumor says those are the words she will say. All she would have is one gun, a police standard issue pistol. No great weapon, no great skills. Nothing that says why this particular child could live for so long on her own.

Though there is a bit more to the rumor. Of those who traveled with her. It was true. No one who was with her ever died, but it seemed she attracted those undead beasts.

When her bullets ran out, when it seemed all was lost, she knelt on the ground, closed her eyes, and clasped her hands together.

Rumors says she only says two things. A name and a plead. And with that, those who traveled with her swear that that they see something strange. Skeleton arms, all the color of blood seem to appear and strike down every single beast.

Not only that, but it seems to pull the very darkness, the very disease out of them, leaving the diseased flesh left behind looking nothing more than a normal human corpse.

Rumor says that many have asked her what that was.

"She's mad. If you're dead, you stay below. You decay below. You only move below. She hates that they can walk here freely while she can't. So I'm her mediator."

When they ask what that means, she never explains. Eventually people leave her, unable to take the dead she just draws in like a magnet.

The only other clue is what her plea is. She always asks the same thing, or so rumor says.

"Please, Izanami-sama."
