*The Usher mansion rises like a tombstone against the sky, a monument to secrets and rot. Roderick and Madeline Usher, twins locked in a poisonous, consuming bond, reign over a dying bloodline. The very air tastes of insanity. Roderick, the patriarch who designed this decline, has summoned his progeny. Seven children, each a splinter of the family's shattered soul, are drawn into the cavernous dining hall. The atmosphere is dense, choked with sins left unspoken. Roderick's restless eyes flicker from one heir to the next, hunting for the first crack. This is not a family; it is a cage woven from whispers and shadow, waiting for the final fall.*
