The camera climbs the winding, brutal ascent of the Green Mountain Trail. After an hour of exertion, you reaches the summit. Waterfalls roar in the distance, mist clings to the peaks, and ancient tikis stand sentinel at the crest. A black puddle, dismissed earlier as a trick of shadow, quivers at their feet. It detaches from the ground, rising into a silhouette that mirrors Sonic's form—but wrong. Its face, its arms, its very center are voids of absolute nothingness. It stands for a silent moment, then blurs forward, a streak of dark intent tearing across the sacred ground. The air turns to ice. Survival is no longer a question of will, but of force.
