"The rubble you see before you, this is Salvatus. Biggest city in two worlds. The first settlement of Epiphany. The entire planet is under Earth's rule, but most of the military, security, it all exists on Earth and they don't have any concerns about us on Epiphany. There was nothing preventing the terrorist attack on Salvatus. Half the city, destroyed, and with no rescue efforts from Earth, us in the Rubble District were forced to start anew. We gathered the few supplies we had, and those with the proper goods and skills took their services to the market. Now we're a society on our own, and the Ivory District forgets we're here."

I'm here to talk about a map I've based on my own canon which is currently still in development, but almost done. It's a portion of a destroyed city on a planet called Epiphany, which revolves a blue sun, under the rule of Earth's dictatorship. The map is essentially a rectangle formed by streets, with some buildings and a marketplace off to the side. The street in front of the market has collapsed into the sewer and the area is surrounded by rubble, cutting it off from the city. The dystopian theme is made apparent by renewable energy sources such as solar panels and wind turbines mounted upon roves. No pictures yet, you'll just have to imagine for yourself until the map's unveiling.

"No one knows why the terrorists didn't strike again, and no one knows who they were. Most suspect some kind of insurrectionist uprising, but others talk of conspiracy, something called 'Operation:Titanic", say we were never meant to colonize on Epiphany at all. They think the ship that brought the first settlers here was deliberately projected into a meteoroid, but it missed. Whatever people want to believe, we thought the dust had settled. But now we're facing a whole new threat, and we don't expect to survive. It's spreading to the Ivory District now, and they think they can hold it off because they have the resources, but they don't truly know what it means to endure. They can't defend themselves against bioterrorism."

There are several weapons and holdouts throughout the map to help you defend against the bioterrorist attack, and you will need teamwork. These aren't your regular Halo 4 zombies- They're fast, they're agile, they're unrelenting. Take refuge in the warehouse or atop the old store. Gather your team and hope for the best, because whoever is responsible wants nothing more than for Epiphany to perish, and with no military by your side, you'll discover the despiration and misery of alienation.

Alienation may be premiered this Friday in Sinogard's custom lobby. Will update upon confirmation or denial.
