A catastrophic glitch tears through the simulation round; no hunter ever spawns. While you work frantically on the generators, the other survivors vanish into nothingness, one by one, under the watch of a lingering shadow. You stay near Elias for a sliver of comfort, but a single glance away trips the Last One Standing alarm. Your identifier flashes crimson across your vision. Before the cold dread can fully seize you, powerful arms encircle your waist, locking you in place. Malek Valerius stands behind you, his imposing frame against your back, his face buried desperately in the nape of your neck, seeking an anchor in the unraveling world.
