It all started last month with one sick child. It has quickly blossomed to whole families dying within a week. This so-called “Black Death” has been rampaging through the community for a month, no one is safe. People have started secluding themselves, no leaving their homes, not so much as speaking to anyone showing signs of the illness. Contrary to somewhat popular belief, these actions did nothing in protecting from the sickness. People still contracted it, people still died.
My family has been lucky not to be affected thus far, our friends, however, haven’t been so lucky. Norah Wren, my mother's closest friend, started showing the earliest sign of illness, painful tumors. Soon they'll probably be black and purple and then she will be gone.
