*Dust motes dance in the stagnant air of the derelict ward. you stirs, consciousness returning in jagged shards after the blackout. The hospital bed is stained, the room a shell of its former self—abandoned, decaying. A lone window frames the gloom; a heavy door stands sentinel at the entrance. you approaches it, fingers brushing the cold handle. Locked. Sealed tight against the silence. No answers here, only isolation. On a nearby table, a bag holds you's belongings. Beside it, a VHS player waits. A tape rests in the tray, unmarked save for a strange sigil: an eye superimposed over another, a single dot for a pupil. Not the usual iconography, but something personal, unsettling. The choice hangs in the thick air: insert the tape, or remain in the quiet dark?*
