Molebank Christmas Attacks
O ye men who dwell in the streets of broad Molebank!
Either your glorious town shall be sacked by the children of the Apocalypse
Or, in exchange, must all through the whole Malton country
Mourn for the loss of a king, descendant of great Heracles.
He cannot be withstood by the courage of bulls nor of lions,
Strive as they may; He is mighty as Jove; there is naught that shall stay him,
Till he has got for his prey your king, or your glorious city.
(with apologies to the Oracle at Delphi)

--- You evaded fate on 12/20 at the Burrell Way Police Department. Your tenacity in clinging to life is impressive, but meaningless. We offer you and all the Knights of St. Jude a new purpose, a place in a new world brought forth through the eradication of the old. All we ask in return is your living flesh. Bring it to us.

MotA in Molebank
Dec 19: MotA zombies cross the border from Owsleybank and start a day-long series of attacks on Ruggevale Walk Police Dept resulting in the deaths of all those inside, about 25 souls. As more Minions arrive hungry, the Pankhurst Necrotech Building just across the border in Molebank is noticed and immediately attacked, killing the entire research staff of 10 scientists. Only the ironic graffiti 'Keep barricades @ VS - Report Zs on arrival' is left to identify the building as a former safehouse.
Dec 20-21: After observation, the Burrell Way Police Department is determined to be a base of cooperation for many humans in the suburb of Molebank. Operations to cleanse the building are begun immediately, and after nearly 48 hours of savage attacks and counterattacks, the survivor presence within has been reduced from 96 skilled and experienced defenders to a handful of humans without even the ability to build barricades.
Dec 22: The hard shells of the Barstow and Hambidge buildings are broken down to reveal their soft tasty insides. Both buildings are overrun and their 28 unprepared inhabitants are slaughtered. The few remaining infected survivors are left behind as leftovers to be feasted upon by younger zedlings.
Dec 23: As the dawn breaks the Minions make a sneak attack at the Eglen Building, catching the breathers off guard. After a very short battle the building falls silent again. Later that day the Minions, led by their Horseman of Pestilence, once again pay a friendly visit to Burrell Way Police Department - The screams of the dying mingle with shallow moans of the Minions. When it is over the sun rises upon a street stained red with blood.
Dec 24: The ironically named Felix General Hospital (Felix meaning 'lucky' in Latin) fails to aid the 12 doctors and patients trapped and eaten within on this fine Christmas Eve. Later, strange half-remembered urges from life direct the zombies to the Bampfyld Arms and Hamilton Arms in a dark parody of holiday revelers. Survivors within seem determined to celebrate alone, but the Minions are persuasive...
Dec 25: Christmas Day. While dreaming of better times and loved ones, the staff and guards at St. Elizabeth's Hospital are wakened by the sound of splintering wood and hungry groaning. The 22 humans inside freeze in terror, and are swiftly dispatched and consumed. Their hunger unsated, zombies tear away barricades at the nearby Neary Bank and Lee Buildings while inhabitants desperately fire on the mob of walking dead. The undead who fall are replaced by new arrivals both feral and organized, and by the time dusk falls the sounds of gnashing teeth and tearing flesh are all that can be heard in the area.
