Welcome to the Black Zone.
From this rooftop, you can see the Servant District quite clearly. And the closer it gets to the southwest edge that leads towards the ruins of Diligence, the worse the situation seems to be.
Yet amidst that swirling madness, you can see some fires. Clear bonfires that no zombie would have set up. Doctor Mordstein must be there, at the heart of this infection.

He nods and heads downstairs.
"…m-mom? Dad?"
Yes… dear?
"I'm… going with the doctor to get a cure… f-for the sickness."
That's nice… dear.
Be back for supper… ok?
"Y-yes mom…"
I love… you… dear
"I love you too… Both of you.
And I'm sorry if I ever disappointed you."
You're… our son. We would love you… no matter what.
Then they all sit in silence.

"Hey… thanks. For everything."
He scratches his infected neck
"I dunno if this is of any use to you or anything, but I was looking out my window while I was sick, and saw some stuff.
The zombies get fatter over time. And angrier.
And that weird mutant doctor had some kind of glowing amulet on him.
Oh! And I saw stuff moving around in the swamp between here and the old town ruins.
That's all I really know…"

Y'all nigs best be here.
Because there is a doctor in need of heavy support out there, and he has the best cures you're likely to have for a good time to come.
If you have any preparations left to make, do them now. Otherwise, we move out into the zone and won't be back until we recover Mordstein.

An entire section of the barricade is blown asunder as a huge, bulky undead tackles through it with a mighty shoulder bash.
You get slammed with a heavy piece of wood, and left nearly collapsed as the monster storms into the Safe Zone.
Its muscles are ripping through the skin, and its body looks disproportionate.
Upon its back, a mare furiously hacks away at it as best she can.

Yes, ponies can climb ladders.
Climbing ladders is now automatic.
>>469972
>>469973
From up here, you have a pretty clear view of what lies ahead.
The alleys and side roads are narrow, so using a ladder to bridge the gap between rooftops will allow for easy travel. There aren't even that many zombies up here. The closest one is on the next rooftop, fixing some loose tiles with an empty look in his eyes.
You should be able to make it almost the entire way up here, provided you don't fall. However, there are some collapsed roofs and entire buildings near the swamp edge, so you will need to make the final sprint along the ground.

The shot slams into the had of the zombie, making it fall out of its harness and off the roof.
However, upon falling to the ground, it just stands up and starts removing the bolt.
You can now grab the tools [Collective MIN10 to remove further ladders] and harness [wearer will not fall to street level if rendered helpless]

You set up the new ladder to form a bridge and head along to the next rooftop.
Underneath, the zombies start crossing a playground or inner yard of some sort.
You can also see skittering motion on the other roads. Something agile, and surely not human.

Danner falls right off the roof as some of the tiles come loose.
However Honeysweet's bolt pushes the closest zombie back, and Frost Cream grabs the Inquisitor with Telekinesis, returning him to the roof safely.
However, lifting such a heavy object exhausts him greatly.
Unable to climb up, the zombies move on further.

You fall back swiftly, reaching the large partially broken building while slowing down the zombies with some ranged fire.
You may proceed further across the rooftops, or hop into the building to get down safely via its interior, and proceed to the outpost on ground level.
You may also go over to the edge to get a better look at what awaits you down there.

It seems someone or something has gathered large piles of corpses into piles near the collapsed buildings.
And more terrifyingly, an absolutely huge zombie is feasting on them, while something drags more corpses into the piles and examining them, before darting off to find more.
You can take a better look at the darting ting, or the huge zombie.
Mordstein has set up a safety perimeter fence from rubble, bonfires and whatever else he could find. The smoke from the bonfires obscures any chance of getting a good view of the outpost from here.

Well it sure as fuck is huge. Probably tall enough to attack and damage buildings. Absolutely inhuman in stature, incredibly bulky, even bloated. And seemingly possessing poor eyesight given the way it fumbles around.
Its flesh is slick with thick oils and blood, and oddly, it seems more like a fusion of many different malformed bodies than a single coherent entity.
>>470078
>>470079
>>470081
It appears to be some sort of chaotic mess of flesh and limbs. Many limbs. And indeed none of them seem to be legs.
It resembles a vaguely human shaped chunk of flesh wrapped in scar tissue with several arms, most of them left arms, jutting out of it. It has a few heads, but none of them look entirely right. Some have no features at all, being more akin to large tumors. A few have mouths but no eyes or nose. And one does have an eye, which twitches rapidly as it looks around, dragging its impossible body around with its many arms, leaping from point to point as it searches for… something.
'1d10' zombies have climbed the building to the west.

It's dark in here. The smoke is blackening out the sky, and there are no lights indoors. It seems you have landed in a partly collapsed top floor, with three bedrooms and one more unknown room. The bedroom walls are gone, and the floor is missing on the other end, allowing access downwards if you don't want to take the stairs.
The last room seems intact, as it was in the far corner of the floor, away from the collapse.

Your bolt strikes that hand, making it fling the flask across the room.
It lands on the floor, making a thumping sound. It does not seem to be fragile.
The arm thing then flips back upright and climbs to the ceiling, trying to rip a board off the wall to escape
>>470305
"Bitch we ain't going anywhere near that nasty shit."
>>470306
You stomp your foot angrily, causing the floor to collapse, making you fall down into the kitchen and get your butt stuck in a pot.
>>470308
At first… I thought he wanted… a go with me…
…but then he just… took my arm… and… put it… on himself…. itself…
No idea… why…

The flesh giant is walking around between the two piles of corpses further away, occasionally glancing around.
If you time it well, the smoke from the bonfires will give you enough cover to let you make it to Mordstein's outpost unseen.

"Mordstein has been working on a solution ever since it arrived.
The smoke keeps it blind to us, and the corpses keep it happy. But the weapon he has made has not yet been tried out."
>>470390
"The sewers?
So you're saying it… originated out there in the swamp?
…could it have come from… Diligence?"

We're just a few watchmen and doctors. Not an attack team."
>>470394
"Mordstein has found a working cure for the infection. It's not perfect, but he has been working on a concentrated dose that may work as a sort of poison to the badly infected."
>>470396
"Hold on there… lady. We know what it is, but we don't know where it came from."
>>470393
He lets you pass.
The inside of the outpost is mostly made up of shanties and tents, full of samples, tools and notes on every possible surface.
A few doctors mill around doing their work in protective gear. Except one. Who is not wearing a mask. Or a shirt for that matter. His left arm flails about at random with no real direction or purpose, and his left shoulder is badly swollen and bulging out, having frown to an inhuman size.

"It rapidly kills infected flesh due to its high potency. This makes it bad as a cure, but effective at killing those with deep infection. In theory."
>>470399
The shirtless one with the massive shoulder and twerky arm turns around
"Yes?
Oh? Hello little pony. Where did you come from?"
>>470401
>>470400
"I suggest you talk directly to Mordstein. He has a better understanding of the big picture."

He looks confused for a moment, then glances left, grabs his twitching arm by the wrist and tears the entire infested mass, along with the arm, off his body, tossing it over the bonfires
"Sorry for having to see that. I hadn't noticed it had grown back again.
You were saying?"
>>470406
You see Frosty talking to someone clearly infected, who then pulls his own arm and a massive chunk of his shoulder off with one hand, and tosses it over the wall.
>>470403
"Because we fear we may compromise the safety of the outpost."

I shake my head.
"Sorry if I was caught by surprise, My name is Frost and along with Doctor Coltstein and Iron, were sent here to reinforce the medical team and in case. extract you out of here if necessary back to the upper distrct."

His torn open flesh quickly reknits itself into a near slab of scar tissue
"Good day. Doctor Mordstein. Who might you be?"
>>470411
"Extract me?

Looks like the others already found him
>>470424
"Well I have enough data to continue my work in other locations just as easily now."
>>470421
"Ah.
Well, my research has indicated that the plague is of magical origin. Powerful magic. Volatile and difficult to control, let alone replicate. Indeed lately I've begun to believe it may be coming from the castle in Dilicence's ruins. After all, it was once rumored that the woman for whom it was built, Lady Rotunda I, was a witch."

"Much of that lines up with what we've encountered so far. The doctors back outside the zone suspected that this was magical in origin, and the fact that several of the victims somehow remain lucid helps confirm it. In fact, I came here in pursuit of Rotunda herself, but I'll settle for whoever is currently residing in there if they're behind this madness."

Even one who can rip his own arm clean off?
>>470431
"…this place is just swarming with new faces today…
Yes. I do. A concentrated form of the cure I've managed to devise, that practically melts infected flesh.
Sadly I don't have much of it. If only I still had my Endless Flask…"
>>470433
"Well I was wanted back in the Owner District…"
>>470434
"Perfect.
Now the only thing I'm missing is someone who can read Witchspeak. If I could, I could decode some notes I was able to get my hands on. With them, I may be able to create a stronger, or a more surefire cure."

Mordstein soon returns with a pump device and a fragile looking canister hooked up to the flask
"Genius. That's me.
This device will evaporate the anti-zombie poison and fill the canister with it. When thrown, the canister will release a gas that quickly corrodes infected flesh. A new canister can be attached and filled once the Endless Flask has refilled itself with a new dose."
>>470480
"The Endless Flask will refill itself with any liquid that is placed inside once emptied. It takes some time, but indeed it never completely runs dry."

He doesn't let go of it.
"I'm not sure if you're qualified to handle that. Drop a canister and any part of you with infection it in will probably rot and fall off."
>>470502
"I can tell my assistants to pack up our research and we can all head back to the Owner District to come up with a solid plan on how to fix this place for good."

"Believe me Inquisitor, if I thought there was a chance I would not make it, I would not offer to.
Even at the threat of being put on the purge list, I feel I should inform you that most of my cure experiments were performed on my own body. At least at first. However as a side effect of the several different approaches to a cure I tested, I fear I no longer quite… count as human. You probably saw my arm earlier. I grow a new one a few times a day now. They are never perfect, and they never feel like a part of me, so I get rid of them."
He pauses for a moment
"…You may have seen what the first one ended up like. Big flailing mass of limbs? Malformed heads?
That was my original left arm. I cut it off when it started growing a second head. And when I though to experiment on it, it ran away.
Though I did not gain my regenerative capabilities until later, it was already mutated enough to find a way to fuse flesh together. I think it may be trying to rebuild itself. Or… build a new me.
And I think it may have practiced by building the giant outside."

"Well then you're going to have to keep yourself from starting more fights then."
>>470518
"…I see. I can't condone your actions, doctor, but all things considered you are extremely lucky, and I may owe my own life to your work before this is all over. But if you're going to keep growing new body parts like that, I'll have to find something to do with you when this is all over. Maybe a quick death saving these poor souls would be the better option for you."

Mordstein checks his gas grenade device
"I believe the mutation on it is so extensive these should rot it down to nothing… eventually. It would still need to be destroyed piece by piece, which will not be safe not swift.
I leave the call up to you. I can ask my men to burn everything so we can run, or I can gear up for a fight."

I'll look towards the noise of the large undead.
"We should likely hurry, however. It won't be content to just wait around forever, and that hand-thing might decide that this place hasn't been searched yet."

By majority vote, we press on a bit more.
Mordstein's team springs into action, throwing everything they can into the bonfires. Unnecessary notes, failed concoctions, tainted clothes, dead bodies, tents, bedrolls, anything to thicken the smoke.
And it works.
Under an impenetrable black blanket you make your way past the undead colossus as it falls back away from the smoke.
Though the streets still contain walking dead, Mordstein's gas proves to be effective, melting away infected flesh, leaving the zombies crippled or outright destroyed. You make a final heroic push through a small horde near the Safe Zone, and with the aid of the Watchmen, secure a safe return.
Mordstein and his team head to the Watch House to report back in. The checkpoint Watchmen keep vigil, but for now it seems that the situation is calming down once again. A calm before a storm no doubt, but it will offer everyone a chance to catch their breath and get some sleep before the madness returns.

Mordstein's team has set up their equipment again, and are working on preparing larger batches of cure.
"Welcome back, friends. With the resources we have here, we can produce much more cure and a much faster rate. However, I fear it is still rather… weak. The plague magic at work here is difficult to understand from mere observations. Were I to have translations of the notes I was able to acquire related this topic, I could create a far more accurate cure.
However… I'd need a witch for that."

As a result, it ended up with some… unique mutations before I got the formula right. I had to amputate it after it started trying to grow a second head. However, it survived amputation and fled. I think it is still mutating, and gathering more parts in an effort to "complete" itself. If you see it again, don't feel bad about killing it. It's just a heap of infected waste."

As you near the Grand Inn, a somewhat scruffy looking lady comes flying out of the main door and lands on the street outside.
Her garb is unusual, and looks faded from the sun and from being through some rough action. Her pants are loose and her shirt is tight. her hair is cut short and her hands and feet are bandaged up to protect from injury.

>>472358
"…I'll start working right away. There is much that needs to be erased.
Now please. Go rest up while you can."

Her eyes widen as your leg flows along hers, before delivering a sharp kick right on the sweet spot with far more force that the short windup distance should allow.
She crouches down and wheezes a bit, rubbing the painful hit, but stands back up with a fire in her eyes and a wide grin on her face
"That made me feel ALIVE!"
She then takes a more closed, reinforced stance and lashes out with her right, fakes it short, striking with the left, only to reveal that was the real ruse and finishing with the right after all

"Just keep 'em out of trouble."
He tosses you two keys

"Rooms are on the third floor."

The party returned Mordstein and his team to the Owner District by burning the entire outpost to make a heavy smokescreen that blinded the undead giant long enough to let you slip by.
Cures and Gas Bombs can be restocked at the Watch House now.
As the zombies seem to have subsided for a moment, you can rest up at the Grand Inn while the calm lasts.
The others also met Miss Tappins and her pony Breaker. They offered info on the location of two hiding witches in exchange for a room at the inn.

"We walked. That's sort of how we do things. We see where the world takes us, and see what we can do about it when we get there."
>>472474
"That's a side effect of some of my less successful cures. I tried to grow healthy tissue to replace infected tissue, but it did not work right."
>>472475
For now, there are not many zombies around. Unless you want to head out into the Zone alone.
Pause soon

"Word travels, and so do I.
I've seen their hiding place. I know where it is and I know someone lives there. All rumors say they are runaway witches hiding from the coven."

"Thank Red. Come by later if you want to… chat."
She gives you a friendly jab to the gut

Try being social instead

"Aww~ And here I thought you were made of harder stuff."
…she sounds like she's getting a little too excited about this.
>>472482
Well I dunno. Maybe she could try to calm down for a second and think about things.
Or she might be very alone forever.
>>472485
"…unfortunate.
However I can't think of much else you can do for me at this hour. Why not go rest up with the others? It will give me time to prepare."

I shake my head.
"I want too but the disease still continue's to ravage the masses. Every hour we waste means more civilians are affected and will soon turn to mindless zombie's." I grit my teeth before looking at him as my eyes lighten up.
"Hey, I heard that someone called Miss Tappin is offering a location where a witch is hiding. Perhaps that is our ticket dont you think?"

"If they prove cooperative."
She downs her pint
"Now if you'll excuse me, I think I'll rest a bit."
>>472488
She gives you a sly look as she stands up, running her hand along your belt as she walks to the stairs
"Anyone can make claims. Not all can back them up."
