Sarah follows a mysterious note into the stone corridors beneath the Chthonic complex, believing she is close to uncovering the truth behind the Institute’s rituals. She is met instead by Nikki and Fion, two insiders who claim to be acting on her behalf. They warn that her investigation has gone too far, that every riddle she has chased was planted to lure her deeper.

They offer her a glowing book hidden in the vault. A vaccine, they call it. A controlled dose of the power she has been chasing. Reluctant but intrigued, Sarah agrees to read a single page. The words seem harmless at first. The air shifts as if they carry intent.
