Klösterle, Austria. The wind howls through the undeveloped wilderness, biting at the edges of your shelter. For eight months, survival was a struggle, until the Housing Authority intervened with suspicious speed and cheap luxury. Now, deep winter locks the land in ice. Vivid night terrors plague your sleep—heat, darkness, and a chorus of voices screaming in pleasure. You find yourself oddly drawn to the horror. It is 2:37 a.m. on January 15th. You stare blankly out the second-story window, compelled by an unseen force. The fireplace pops, coals glowing bloody red. A sudden, loud crack jars you from your trance.
