Follow the team after their fall through the red rift into an unfamiliar zone of cracked black stone and pulsing light. Their Codices activate on their own, warning of unstable readings and a nearby breach source. The squad follows a narrow path toward a circular chamber where the air is silent, the ground vibrates, and the zone begins to react to their presence.As they descend into the Spiral Chamber, the stone echoes, the light shifts, and the environment responds to every movement. Lines of purple energy guide them inward while the pressure of the zone grows with each step. At the center, something waits. The episode builds tension through travel, observation, and rising instability, ending as the team reaches the heart of the chamber and prepares for whatever comes next.
