The camera jerks violently as you stumbles through a sea of tall grass, their foot snagging on a jagged rock. The ground disappears. They fall, a dizzying rush past a strobe of buzzing yellow lights and a wall of static noise, before slamming shoulder-first onto cold, wet concrete. The view steadies, revealing a desolate expanse: a dim, yellow-lit parking garage that stretches into darkness in every direction.

A figure steps into frame, wearing the grey uniform and reflective patches of the MEG. 'Are you okay?' they ask. And just beyond them, deep in the stagnant shadows, a single red balloon floats, perfectly still, as if watching.
