Chapter 8: The Walking Dead
The Dark Nation continued to expand, an unrelenting force fueled by the endless merging of
realms. As if the endless hordes of zombies from Dead Rising, Dawn of the Dead, and 28
Days/Weeks/Years Later weren't enough, the next wave of death arrived from one of the most
iconic zombie universes—the Walking Dead. The zombies from The Walking Dead, Fear the
Walking Dead, and The Walking Dead: World Beyond joined the ever-growing mass of the
undead, creating an army that seemed limitless. The shambling, decayed figures of the walkers
filled every corner of the Dark Nation, adding to the chaos and despair that gripped this
nightmarish land.
The merging of these universes brought with it the horrifying reality that there was no end to the
undead. From the ruined streets to the fog-covered forests, the zombies of The Walking Dead
joined forces with the ravenous hordes of 28 Days Later, Dead Rising, and Dawn of the Dead.
Together, they transformed the landscape of the Dark Nation into a true nightmare—a place
where the living could not survive.
As the horde grew, the Silent Hill creatures, Creepypasta entities, Jason Voorhees, and Pyramid
Head watched as the mass of undead swarmed around them. The Dark Nation was becoming a
world where nothing but death reigned supreme, and the creatures who had once dominated
their own realms now found themselves sharing their kingdom of horror with an unstoppable tide
of the undead.
But while the Dark Nation became a living graveyard, the humans of the Walking Dead universe
were spared from this fate. The One Above All intervened, transporting the surviving, reformed
humans from the Walking Dead universe to the safety of the Light Nation. There, they were
welcomed by the ever-growing community of survivors from other worlds, each bringing their
own stories of endurance and hope.
Among the new arrivals were familiar faces from across the Walking Dead universe. Rick
Grimes, the strong and determined leader, along with his wife Lori Grimes and their children,
Carl Grimes and Judith Grimes, were transported to the Light Nation, their journey of survival
continuing in this new land. Shane Walsh, Rick's former friend and rival, also joined them, as did
Andrea, the sharp-shooter who had long fought to stay alive.
Dale Horvath, the moral compass of the group, arrived with Glenn Rhee, the resourceful former
pizza delivery driver, and his wife Maggie Greene, the daughter of Hershel Greene, the wise
and compassionate farmer. The Greene family, including Beth Greene, was spared from the
horrors of the Dark Nation, joining the Light Nation alongside Carol Peletier and her daughter
Sophia. Daryl Dixon, the skilled hunter and tracker, also found his way to safety.
The group grew even larger with the arrival of T-Dog, the fierce warrior Michonne, and the
once-powerful leader The Governor (Philip Blake), who had finally sought redemption. Despite
their complicated pasts, those who sought to change were given a second chance in the Light
Nation. Others from the Walking Dead world followed: Tyreese Williams, his sister Sasha, the
tough and resourceful Abraham Ford, the brilliant but cowardly Eugene Porter, and Rosita
Espinosa.
New alliances formed in the Light Nation as more survivors arrived. Tara Chambler, Deanna
Monroe, and her son Spencer Monroe were transported to safety, along with Aaron and Eric
Raleigh, who had once helped recruit new survivors to Alexandria. Father Gabriel Stokes, the
once-troubled priest, found peace in the Light Nation, as did Jesus (Paul Rovia), the skilled
fighter.
Even Negan, who had sought to redeem himself for his violent past, found a place in the Light
Nation alongside Dwight, who had turned against his former villainy. Jadis (Anne), the enigmatic
leader of the Scavengers, arrived as well, having left her darker choices behind.
But not all were spared. The bad humans, those who had chosen to remain in their wickedness,
were left behind in the Dark Nation, where their dark intentions and twisted minds belonged.
The Governor (Philip Blake), in his most destructive form, remained, as did Simon, the ruthless
lieutenant of Negan who never sought redemption. Alpha, the leader of the Whisperers who
delighted in chaos, and her loyal enforcer Beta, found themselves in the Dark Nation,
surrounded by their monstrous counterparts.
Others, like Gregory, the selfish leader of Hilltop, were also condemned to the Dark Nation,
along with Jared and the other vile members of the Saviors who had shown no remorse. Dawn
Lerner, the corrupt officer from Grady Memorial, and Gareth, the cannibalistic leader of
Terminus, also joined the ranks of those who would never be redeemed. These humans, driven
by cruelty and greed, were left to wander the Dark Nation, where they thrived amidst the chaos
and destruction.
In the Light Nation, the survivors were greeted by the humans from Silent Hill, Dead Rising,
Dawn of the Dead, and the 28 Days/Weeks/Years Later universes. Together, they began to form
a resilient community within the safety of the Light Nation. Under the protection of The One
Above All, they shared their experiences, their grief, and their hope for a better future.
But as they adjusted to life in the Light Nation, the darkness of the Dark Nation continued to
grow. The combined hordes of zombies now filled the twisted streets, a relentless force of the
undead from countless worlds. The bad humans, trapped in the Dark Nation, continued their
wicked ways, finding themselves aligned with the malevolent forces that ruled the land. The
humans in the Light Nation could only watch from afar, knowing that while they had been
spared, the Dark Nation had become a place where the dead ruled and monsters thrived.
