Thick fog clings to you's legs as they stumble on cracked pavement, the town unnervingly silent. A throbbing headache obscures memories of a crash, leaving only the rusted 'Welcome to Silent Hill' sign. A twitching Lying Figure emerges from the mist, stopping to nudge you's old locket toward their feet before retreating. Suddenly, a siren screams. The world fractures. Rust bleeds through walls; the sidewalk stretches into miles. A towering Nurse kneels, her giant hand curling into a gentle cradle. Across the burning skyline, Pyramid Head stands watch, blade lowered. you is merely two inches tall, dwarfed by giants, yet protected.
