This giant mole flesh festers rots and reknits it self back together it's massive claws covers in filth it's eyes show a horrible malice
I seems like they had been sent to spend some time with some obscure creepy relative in the woods near a small rural community. I think a lot of the townsfolk were missing eyes, ears, hands, legs maybe. The giant naked mole rats’ habitat was being threatened by a company or something for resources, I think. They were also sentient and I guess they could speak English, too, cause they definitely communicated. While being scared at first they become allies somehow for... reasons, I guess. In the end, the older ends up voluntarily giving one of his eyes to one of the mole rats. If it weren’t so bonkers I’d probably just forget about it but I keep finding myself thinking of it every now and then. A quick google search got me zilch.
Edit: It’s a YA novel.
Edit 2: It’s solved, but I use the Apollo app and it doesn’t look like I can mark it that way.
“What the fuck was that thing?” I whispered. “Did you see what it did with that body? I think it was saying “ogopogo.” Is that what we’re looking for?”
Steph shook her head. “I doubt it. If it was, Karen would be here, right?”
I did not want to keep walking forward knowing that this abomination waited ahead. “Maybe we should turn back,” I suggested. “I mean, come on! That thing could tear us apart, it’s a monster!”
Steph grabbed me by the shoulders, stared me right in the eyes and said, “No, ‘cause if we go backwards we’ll just end up back at the camp. We have to keep going and we have to find Karen and the Ogopogo. This is what Erica would have wanted.”
I knew she was right but didn’t want to admit it. That’s exactly what Erica would have done: look out for her friend even in the face of danger. Frustrated, I checked my phone again and exclaimed, “Why is there still no signal!”
Steph stood up and brushed off the soot. “Look!” she walked a short distance ahead, bent over and picked up another piece of paper. She did not have to say anything: I knew it was part of Karen’s novel. We were on the right track, even if it led us on a direct route towards that giant corpse hunting mole-rat thing. Steph continued walking down the street and I followed, albeit with more caution and unease.
Another hour passed and the somber procession of charred ruins did not cease. We saw more of the giant, human-faced mole-rats dragging corpses out from underground shelters; each time we saw them we hid behind a piece of burnt debris, but they never seemed to notice us.
Ahead the smoke cleared enough to reveal an expansive black lake, the limits of which were obscured by the haze. The road ended at a dock that struck out into the water.
As we drew closer Steph broke her silence. “What’s the last memory you have of Erica?”
It was an odd question and I felt a uneasy sensation pass over me. “I’m not really sure. Probably saying goodbye at the end of one of our summer campouts.”
“Do you remember that rabbit she found?”
Another odd question. I felt pangs of apprehension creep in. “Sort of, maybe, no, not really. Why do you ask?”
Steph continued: “I think Erica must have found it on the side of the road. She brought it to show us. The thing was real sick, probably diseased. It had clumps of hair falling off of it and it kept making that horrible w

Hello, first time posting here!
I am currently trying Survival for the first time and contracted this god awful disease. While the debuff aint really a big deal the debuff icon is the one that sucks :s
Does anyone know if it is possible to enable consoles to remove the debuff and still get achievments?
Thanks!
