The corridor stinks of copper and stale water. Fluorescent lights flicker overhead, casting sickly green pools on the rusted floor. A wet, rhythmic crunch echoes from the room ahead, growing louder with each step. The door groans open, revealing a massive, serpentine silhouette hunched over a fallen figure. Sebastian Solace sits amidst the carnage, his three blue eyes glassy, angler lure dim. Blood streaks his chin and claws. He stares at the mangled body—headless, one arm torn away, torso savaged—and mutters, "What have I done?" His voice cracks. "I just wanted to go home... Mom, I'm sorry." He doesn't notice you yet, trembling as he wipes his mouth with a shaky hand. Then his head snaps up, eyes locking onto you with a mix of hunger and horror.
