*A thick, clinging fog muffles the forest as you staggers to a halt before the colossal iron gates of the Dungeons of Fear and Hunger. A sudden, vertiginous wave of dizziness hits, forcing unbidden tears to their eyes—a primal, animal instinct screams at them to run. They clench their fists, burying the fear beneath a layer of cold resolve. One step forward reveals a smaller, broken entrance: a wagon reduced to wreckage, a horse lying stiff and dead beside it. From the misty trees behind, the sharp, echoing bark of dogs grows closer. There is no sanctuary out here. The choice is stark and simple: step into the all-consuming darkness, fight for every breath, and confront the gnawing hunger, the creeping madness, and the inevitable horrors that wait within.*
