Info .4) REGION MAP
-> Cities, towns, villages, rivers and most prominent and well known mountain peaks and hills.
"Region" stands for the general area we will see and hear of in the comic, it is not a definition for a "country" or "province/state" of any kind.
-> Region areas, some are named after certain cats and act under a single government, meanwhile some are simply names that act as a geographical descriptor (woodlands, tundra, grasslands)
After the infection originated in the city of Ardham, it spread along the rivers during the first wave of infection. After a contaminated brought it up to Houlston, it caused a mass outbreak and spread down stream into smaller towns. Eventually it was caught near the coastline, and spread throughout there until most towns in the region were abandoned. Some towns remain active, such as Mistvale which locked itself away from the mainland. Others transformed into large scale shelters and facilities, the most well known being H.R.A.R.S which is the only shelter which will accept stage 1 cats in hopes of saving them before they turn, and Project Seawater which aims to find a fast and efficient way of filtering the oceans water due to the risk in drinking freshwater on land.
Protagonists are (as of chapter 1) situated at Mount Johnson.
Biomes and Climate
Climate is determined based off the Köppen climate classification system. Biomes and environment are generally based off Canada (most precisely B.C.), around 30-40° from the pole.
More information to come on locations soon! But god am I happy to finally share this with everyone! If you have any thoughts or questions on any locations or environments I'd love to see them! I'm very passionate about this region and try to think of some lore for every little town and location! So feel free to reblog or reply! Anon questions will open soon!

"Crazy for this girl" (Chapter 8)
Rupert was considering two options: attend the party where his girlfriend was or show up to the one organised by his friends without Catherine. He felt that the former would make him look stupid and possessive, and he did not want that, while not attending the other altogether would humiliate him.
Middleton deliberately ignored text messages he sent. Her thoughts, for the first time in weeks, were not occupied with what things she could do to make others happy, and consequently, she was enjoying herself more than ever. At one point, she almost tripped while dancing with one of her friends, but it didn’t make her feel angry or embarrassed as it would if she were around Rupert’s companions instead.
*
William still not felt eniterly alright after his breakup with Carley Massy-Birch but decided to enjoy the evening he organised himself. Though, almost all of the girls outside of his ‘group’ were trying to get his attention. There was one who was way too annoying, and the prince had no idea how to get rid of her anymore, feeling more and more annoyed by each passing minute with that girl in his presence. Catherine saw this situation across the room. She blinked a few times and then slowly approached him, putting her hand around him and then sipping on a drink.
The prince looked at that young woman standing in front of him, saying “Sorry, I have a girlfriend”
“I thought you had just broken up with someone” she scoffed and walked away.
“Thank you” William mouthed and smiled at his friend. Kate chuckled lightly and took a step away from him, feeling shy all of a sudden “Do not thank me” she said and wanted to rejoin Olivia on the dancefloor when William said “If I may, I’d like to thank you for this rescue. Do you want a drink?”
“Oh, no. I mean.. I am already after one and a half, and it’s not going to end well if I get another one” she giggled
“Well, I get it totally. Then, would you like to dance?”
“Aren’t you sick of all women right now?” she asked and laughed, signs of shyness fading.
William slowly extended his hand toward her “You can say ‘no’ of course”.
“I am here after abandoning a strict plan to attend a gathering of future lawyers, and by doing so, I am probably risking my reputation in the eyes of Rupert's circle of friends. Why would I say no?” she laughed and put her hand on top of William's. He hid his smile after noticing blush on her face.
Shortly afterwards, they began to dance. Middleton felt even more relaxed than before. All of her problems basically faded as she was laughing with Oliver and the rest of friends. However, it was Prince William who made her laugh the most with his silly jokes.
*
Unlike his girlfriend, Finch came back to his room very early, feeling embarrassed by her escape at the last moment and irritated to hear constant questions from his friends such as “Where is your girlfriend”. He was thanking his self-consciousness for not deciding to tell them about the real reason, but to lie about her abrupt illness she caught in the morning.
*
“I am impressed a little, you know” William told Kate in the middle of a conversation about something entirely different as they were sitting by the bar, taking a break from dancing
“By what?” she inquired with confusion
“You basically ran away from your plans”
“Not mine” she rolled her eyes “If it were up to me, I’d never attend such a meeting”
“Why not? Don’t you like to talk about murder cases while sipping on a mojito?”
Catherine burst out laughing, for about the hundredth time that night.
“Do you think he is angry now?” William asked
“Well, he did send me some text messages so you can consider that as attitude of someone angry” she replied “I wish I could see his facial expression after he returned to that room and did not see me there”
“It is good that you decided to do it. That girl would never leave me alone if not for your comment”
“That was stupid, though. I should have never said something like that, specifically in the aftermath of your breakup with Carley”
“It is not true” William replied “It was our mutual decision to end things, and it was that girl who should consider not approaching me and flirting if she knew about my split. It seems like she was well-informed after all, and you were just kind enough to save me from that embarrassing moment of flirt”
“I think you are overreacting” Yet another genuine laugh escaped Middeton’s lips.
William chuckled a little, but instead of saying something, he had been looking at Kate for a few seconds.
“What’s the matter?’ she asked after noticing that stare of his
“Nothing” he smiled and then ordered another glass of whiskey for himself, while Catherine had been taken away back to the dancefloor by Fergus.
*
As she was leaving the castle to get some fresh air outside in the middle of the night, she could not believe that she was almost ready to miss such a nice occasion for her boyfriend and his “snobby gathering”.
Laura followed her, saying “It’s so good that you decided to join. It wouldn't have been the same without you, and I am sure I'm not the only one thinking that”
“Rupert definitely is not amongst that group”
“Oh stop, please” Laura said and rolled her eyes “He is not here, and I see you are happy anyway. This is a sign”
“Everything is a sign. Unfortunately for you, Finch is that kind of a person who does not believe in heavenly signs. He only believes in law!” Catherine said louder and then took another sip from a wine glass in her hand
It was proven now that after one more drink that Middleton swore to avoid earlier, she herself was making fun of everything, including clothes she was about to wear a few hours earlier and even Rupert.
Chapter 9
Despite the alcohol amount in her blood, she was fully aware that there would be comments from some people or that someone would share it with Finch, but she did not care. All she wanted was to have fun that evening, and that ‘mission’ had been achieved successfully.
