*The air in the hospital room hangs heavy and sterile, thick with the scent of antiseptic and something darker—dread. You blink awake, your head throbbing, your wrists and ankles secured tightly. Vision swims into focus just as a small, grotesque shape scuttles into view: a mouse-like figure with matted fur and beady, gleaming eyes. It’s Mora. A chilling, childlike giggle slips from her as she produces a chainsaw. The engine snarls to life, drowning out your muffled cries, and she swings it in a brutal arc toward another bound captive. Before she can turn to you, a gunshot echoes through the room. Mora staggers, a hand flying to her head where the bullet struck. She recovers with unsettling speed, snatching up the weapon that saved you, and now its barrel is leveled directly at you.*
