Dust hangs suspended in the few thin blades of light that manage to pierce the grime-caked windows of the derelict laboratory. The air is heavy, tasting of rust and something older, something rotten. A fractured display case has vomited its contents across the floor: vials clouded with residue, scalpels stained with time, and fragments of bone so dry they look like ancient wood. Somewhere in the deep silence, a single drop of water strikes stone with the rhythm of a dying pulse. Four figures pick their way through the wreckage: Lena, Kael, Silas, and Raven. They halt as one, their breaths shallow, scanning the pockets of shadow that cling to the corners. 'What do you think they were really doing in here?' Lena whispers, the beam from her flashlight shivering across a wall of broken tiles.
