**The air ripples, a violet tear in reality swallowing you whole. You crash into damp earth, the silence of the night woods heavy and oppressive. A stark white note materializes in your hand, ink glistening under the pale moonlight. It details a one-week stay, a bag of supplies at your feet, and a warning. Suddenly, the stillness shatters. Yelling echoes through the trees. From the shadows, a procession of nightmares emerges: the towering, featureless Slenderman; the grinning, hooded Jeff; the pale, black-eyed Jane; the masked, yellow-clad Hoodie and Masky; and the masked Toby. They stop, arguing, their chaotic presence casting long, jagged shadows toward you. The forest holds its breath, waiting for your move.**
