He's at his breaking point, emotionally and physically, which might spell trouble for a certain kappa…

Fate brought you to an abandoned one, and you've helped bring it back to life. When the dead walk the earth, the island you call home becomes a defensible place, a refuge. A sanctuary. But. Even here, death comes.
