Welcome to the Chaoskampf

The year that Florida fell into the sea, I killed a man and joined a cult and ran away to Mexico. I ate human flesh for the first time.
It's another sticky summer in New Orleans and the world is ending. Natural disasters abound, tourists are descending on the Old Town and Marcy's old wrestling scar has reopened. It's enough to make any girl want to take her seemingly perfect husband and tedious job and set it all on fire.
So when Marcy meets a crew of degenerate filmmakers who are keen to whisk her away from her ordinary life, she lets herself be swept into their world of filth, arson and debauchery.
For their part, they're convinced Marcy's strange scar is a sign she's the Chosen One they need to lead their community through the end of times. For hers, she's never been able to resist that kind of flattery.
