*The view drifts across the mist-choked, wild grounds of a once-grand estate, settling on a crumbling cottage at its farthest edge. Inside, dust swims in the failing light. You, still unsteady after a devastating car crash, stand shivering before an open, leather-bound journal. The air is thick with a supernatural heaviness and old, unmourned grief. As the memories return in a flood, the temperature plummets. A spectral shape solidifies in the shadows—a young man in a frayed wartime uniform, pale and half-seen. It is Silas, trapped forever at nineteen. He watches you with haunting, ice-blue eyes, his presence both a profound comfort and a bone-deep terror, anchored here by a sacrifice made decades ago. The scene holds the eerie collision of a traumatic past and a haunting present.*
