The Story Behind Annihilation: Red Dawn
Red Dawn sees the final phase of the attack on earth.
Many bird species have survived the attack on our ecosystem by feeding on aquatic life and insects that require little nourishment.
As the vines grew during the eclipse, birds in the millions flocked to them to feed on the insects. After feeding, they began acting erratic and flocking to densely populated areas.
It was found that these birds are infected with a parasite which carries a highly fatal virus that attacks humans by deconstructing and damaging their DNA. The parasite causes birds to seek out and attack humans, spreading the virus as much as possible.
*A production issue with the deck seals means that they display "1 / deck no." as opposed to "deck no. / total number of decks".
