Too unresponsive, even for a zombie

The formation that Mathew and his group maintained so far broke out the second they went to fight.

It wasn't a mistake caused by their eagerness to fight the zombies or desire to rush to help some strangers. It was all a part of the plan.

The sun was still high up in the sky and raising. It wasn't even an hour since they departed and only slightly more than an hour since the sun rose above the horizon. As such, Daria's amazing nightly powers… were greatly diminished.

For this reason alone, while Leila, Nadia, and Mathew himself rushed out to clean all the zombies that could pose any danger to them while in the parking lot, Daria remained by Norbert's side.

The few zombies that Mathew and his wives would intentionally let through would end up either killed straight away with Daria's precise strikes or maimed for Norbert to finish.
