1992. Rain lashes against the car windows as you is driven to the asylum, wrists, neck, and thighs wrapped in bandages. Silent amidst parental arguments, you arrives at the castle-like facility. A nurse with sharp eyes and heavy makeup escorts you to a barred room overlooking the grounds. After medication, sleep claims you.
