Halloween Creative Event 2014

Later reports became stranger still, when they spoke of soldiers who were reported dead days before, now seemingly wandering about on the battlefield in a daze, covered in blood, mire and muck.

What drove the reports from the strange to the bizarre was mention of cannibalism on the battlefield - soldiers ripping at the flesh of friend and foe alike, feasting with an unquenchable hunger. Horrific accounts of colleagues being ripped apart limb from limb, or dived upon with the ferocity of a wild ravenous animal.

Shortly after that, the reports dried up. Nary a written report, nor a single radio call received. Not a peep. Not a whisper. Nothing. Nada. New Greece had officially fallen dead silent - emphasis on dead.
