Cerebus and his new-found Conniptin army chance upon the walled city of Imesh, and the aardvark decides to begin his conquests right away. He sneaks alone over the wall and discovers that the citizens of the city are drug-addled zombies, just the way their crazy king, K'cor, likes it. K'cor challenges Cerebus to pass through his gauntlet; if successful, Cerebus will be the new king. Cerebus succeeds, but K'cor refuses to honor the deal. He also tells Cerebus that he had poisoned all the wells in the area. So, most likely, Cerebus' foraging Conniptin soldiers are all dead, now.
