    Content Info: This story contains depictions of gore and self-inflicted harm. 
    The apocalypse is here, and I'm snug in my apartment with cookie dough and despair. The internet and television are dead and I'm stuck in a wheelchair while the world falls apart outside. I'm alone, I'm tired, and I'm calm. Time for a final meal. 
    Wheelchair Seating for the Apocalypse is a story for all those who are tired of seeing the creepy kids, strong dudes and hot chicks populate every horror story.

    Sometimes it's empowering to choose not to fight.

    Sanctimonious, Hypocritical, Manipulative—Shelby Blackwood is a priest of the worst sort. To keep his secluded little village peaceful, he's learned to carefully balance preaching of faith and fear. Ives Thatcher, the reclusive woodsman at the edge of the forest, has neither; the villagers are not pleased. But converting Thatcher proves to be easier said than done when Shelby discovers there is something far more unnatural about Thatcher than his pagan ways, and he can't help himself from being tempted by the large man's power and allure. Worse still, there's a newcomer in town, and her curiosity and defiant personality may not just jeopardize Shelby's secret, but the sanctity of the very system he's worked to maintain.

    The unnamed narrator of the story goes into the middle of the Arabian Peninsula to seek out and enter a lost city. After hearing a clanging seemingly coming from deep inside the earth, the narrator inspects mysterious carvings and ruins until nightfall. The next day, the narrator discovers a cliff riddled with low-ceilinged buildings, unfit for human use. While he attends to his suddenly nervous camel, the narrator discovers a somewhat larger temple, with altars, painted murals, and a small staircase going down. After he descends, his torch dies, and he crawls on his hands and knees until he enters a hallway with small wooden coffins containing bizarre reptiles inside of them lining the walls. The narrator notices a large amount of light coming from an unknown source. After crawling to it on his hands and knees, he sees a large brass door with a descent into a misty portal. He then hears moaning coming from the coffin passage, and feels a strong wind coming from the passage, trying to pull him down. Against all odds, he resists, and sees what appear to be reptiles with a body shaped like a cross between a crocodile and a seal with a strange head common to neither of them, involving a protruding forehead, horns, lack of a nose, and an alligator-like jaw crawling behind the lit portal. The wind dies down after the last of it flows down into the light, when suddenly the door closes behind the narrator, leaving him in the dark.
