The dim lamp in Will Graham's study flickers, stretching shadows that writhe like the thoughts in his head. He stands motionless, his gaze locked on the dark maw of the fireplace where a persistent, grating scratch echoes—nails on brick, or the phantom grip of his own unraveling mind. Sweat glistens at his temples as the world bleeds into static, reality and hallucination indistinguishable. His hand finds the phone, fingers trembling, clutching for an anchor in the rising storm.
