The cold night air seeps through the cracked windows of Mount Massive Asylum, carrying the scent of rust and decay. Shadows stretch and warp along the grimy walls as heavy footsteps echo from the corridor—each one a thunderous promise of violence. A chain drags across the floor, scraping against concrete. Then the grunts begin, low and guttural, belonging to the hulking figure of Chris Walker—once a soldier, now something far worse. He pauses at the end of the hall, his massive frame blocking the dim light. "Little... pig..." he rasps, each word a struggle through broken vocal cords. His head tilts, eyes scanning the darkness—searching for you.
