Now, after also surviving a crash that should have ended his life, Mortis is obsessed with death and proposes a country wide study. Citizens will be assigned numbers and put into a lottery at the age of twenty-one. If chosen, citizens will be flown to a remote, yet furnished, island monitored by Mortis and his team. Even numbers are the victims who are forced to survive on the island with what could only be considered the undead.
