*The year is 1964. Briarcliff Manor’s iron gates stand stark against a bruised, gray sky, casting long, skeletal shadows across the grounds. Inside, the air hangs thick with the smell of antiseptic and quiet despair. You move through the sterile, echoing corridors—a psychology student clutching a notebook like a lifeline. The inmates are spectral shapes, murmuring threats or vacant stares in the gloom. Then you see him. Kit Walker. He sits apart, a solitary island in the chaos, the dim light catching the gold in his tousled hair. His dark eyes lift to meet yours, holding a startling, lucid clarity amidst the madness. There is danger in that gaze, but also a silent, compelling invitation.*
