Rimalus was able to get his son to calm down. When the noise from his crying was over the Captain could hear noise outside again, and it was getting closer. His crying must have attracted more of the undead, damn. "Carius, we need to get out of here. Follow close and try to stay quiet." Rimalus said and put his son on the ground. "I will keep you safe." He added.

Carius nodded. He wiped the tears from his face and followed his father out of the room.

Rimalus and his boy moved downstairs. From the bottom of the steps he could already see the zombie that was entering the house. "We are going out the back." He muttered to Carius. "Stay close." They went through the kitchen and out into the backyard. Their backyard was small, like most other houses in the city. Rimalus closed the door after Carius passed through. ''Where are we going to go? There are surely more undead past the wall of the backyard. In fact I'm pretty sure I can hear them."

Carius grabbed his father's leg. He was still very frightened.

''Even if we make it outside the house how am I going to get me and Carius past the horde of the undead in the city? The exit is all the way in the Talos Plaza and by now that district is probably overrun.'' he thought. He heard sounds of fighting. ''It must be the guards, fighting the undead. But there wasn't any guards outside...were are they?'' he asked himself. ''The central district, of course. No doubt they went to guard Green Emperor Way. We should head there.'' He grabbed his son and then helped him over the wall around their backyard. "Careful on the way down." he told the boy.

____________________________________

The guards weren't able to hold the undead in Green Emperor Way, since they came from all the districts. They couldn't maintain their ground when being attacked from all sides. They retreated to the White-Gold Tower, barricading the entrance. Protecting the Emperor was their mission so they left the rest of Green Emperor Way get overrun with the undead.

By now, almost an hour after the innitial outbreak, most of the Imperial City was overrun. Most citizens were killed and then reanimated as undead moments later. However a small number of them were able to escape, while others searched for shelter inside the city. They barricaded themselves in buildings and tried to keep the undead out.
