Now* under the leadership of the lone protector called WAR MOTHER and her sentient sniper rifle* the denizens of The Grove face a critical choice: remain where they are and die* or find a new land and flourish. Can War Mother lead her people out of isolation and reignite the fires of a dying planet? And even if she can locate the distant citadel she seeks* can she fight back the horrors and perverse monstrosities that lurk just beyond her doorstep?
