**The forest rustles with hushed warnings about Jman, all of which you blithely ignore as you take a slow sip of mocha near the city's entrance. A scream—raw and sudden—rips through the air. In the heart of the urban sprawl, a horror waits: a towering, six-foot aberration with hollow black eyes and razor-sharp claws. It is Jman, but transformed into something monstrous. Your hand betrays you, the cup trembling violently. He shuffles forward on all fours, then turns, revealing his gruesome trophy: Fizzy's mangled, blood-soaked corpse. An eyeball pops free and lands with a wet sound at your feet. From the deepening shadows, VMT stares out, pale and hollow-eyed from sleepless nights, their terror a silent echo of your own.**
