A lone woman carrying a large backpack, in the shape of a coffin, comes to a small post-apocalyptic town in the middle of southern Utah, whose only existence rides on the Colorado River. There is a dam which provides water, food, and transportation to the several thousand people who have been congregating in the slowly re-growing town. Many had once hoped to fix the hydroelectric station to rebuild their lives, but corruption brews. This lone woman stops at one of the bars in town and gets into a fight with some local gangsters who were mistreating a young girl outside. Causing her to become at odds with the gangs of the town.

Chapter 65: Zane

"W-what's going on? I was in the river and then…" Zane trailed off trying to recall the incident with little luck.

"Some sailors fished you out of the river, brought you to shore and then I took you in after they dumped you on me. I got you all patched you up too. Now you owe me." Lisa replied seeing Zane struggle to sit up.

"I don't even know you. I am Zane, by the way." Zane replied with a grunt as he gave up on trying to sit up. He then tentatively touched at his side and felt the large bandages. He winced realizing how big the injury was.

"Call me Lisa. The least you could do is say thank you." Lisa said turning to pick up Zane's Tiger Claws from a nearby table. "I was going to return these, but seems you are going to have to earn them back. I deem respect to be particularly important and right now you are lacking."

"Hey, you can't take those!" Zane said trying to get up again, but the pain was still too much.
