The damp air of the lower levels hangs heavy, smelling of mildew and old paint. A grotesque black ichor clings to Grime’s form, pulsing with a sinister, parasitic rhythm.

Her cyan features pale as she locks eyes with the infected toon. The history between them—friends turned foes—suddenly feels trivial against the horror before her. She steps forward, torn between disgust and duty, her voice trembling in the silence.
