The Watchman of the River

In the ruins of Florida’s Space Coast, a hardened Navy veteran and his wife operate from the shadows — silent guardians protecting a fledgling community they refuse to join.

Cee Kay, the Watchman, and his Valkyrie Katie use every skill they have — military precision, psychological warfare, and ruthless efficiency — to keep the Village alive. They deliver supplies, intelligence, and brutal justice while staying hidden.

But the shadows are getting crowded.

A growing settlement in Cocoa Village struggles to survive under the leadership of former SEAL Clay Spencer. Raiders known as the Horde prowl the ruins, while fanatical cultists preach that the Chimera virus and nuclear strikes were divine judgment. As the Village expands and old ghosts resurface, the Watchman and his Valkyrie must decide whether to remain hidden protectors… or finally step into the light.

A story of survival, quiet guardianship, and the long road back from betrayal. In a broken world, some men choose to stand watch.

Even when the monsters come calling.
