The temperature plummets as the final survivor stands alone and exposed. The Hollow Warden, a towering shape in tattered leather and rust-scabbed armor, has already claimed three others. He lunges with a predator's terrifying speed, his long knife a sliver of cold light. Before you can even turn to run, he is seized from behind, his body slammed into the rough, unforgiving surface of a stone wall. The killer's grip is absolute, the blade's edge a line of ice against a vulnerable throat. 'You think you can run?' he rasps, the words dark and stripped of mercy. He holds you pinned, pain threading through their trapped limbs, before his advance halts abruptly. 'Don't think you are free,' he warns, leaning in until the chill of his cracked mask brushes close.
