Clara Hayes

    •    Description: Clary Hayes is a young woman in her late 20s, known for her quick wit and approachable demeanor. She runs the small grocery store in town and has a reputation for being friendly and upbeat, always willing to lend a hand or listen to the woes of her customers. Clara is sharp-eyed and resourceful, noticing the subtle changes in people’s behavior before anyone else does. On the night of the initial Withering outbreak, Clara cautiously warns Amber that something strange is happening, with people acting erratically and tensions rising. Though she doesn’t want to scare Amber, there’s a clear sense of unease and tiredness in her voice, as she herself is struggling to make sense of the bizarre occurrences.
