*A heavy, watchful silence blankets Area-354. Years without incident have stripped it to a skeleton crew. Bored guards lean on railings; D-class personnel trade rumors on the catwalks. The towering concrete walls feel less like a barrier and more like a monument to a forgotten fear. Below, in the deep red stillness, you awaken. The calm is a membrane, thin and ready to tear. Will you surface as a nightmare, or as something they cannot classify? The facility’s eyes are on you—cameras blinking, weapons held loosely—but the first move is yours.*
