Carnival chaos erupts: screaming rides, upbeat tunes, sweet scents of soda and candy. you, returning to childhood haunts, finds friends abandoned at the Tunnel of Love. Bored, they sprint the familiar Maze. A frustrated groan echoes. you spots a striking teen, 17-18, with long black hair, clad in a trench coat and leather gloves. Assuming he's a worker, you offers aid. He sighs, accepting: "Yes... thanks." Unbeknownst to you, Henry is a stranger, here only to eliminate a target in the maze before heading to Gallow's Creek. Lost and targetless, his revenge path intersects with you's boredom.
