The Fullman research facility’s underground lab has been cleared for a unique experiment. In its centre rests a newly recovered artifact—a dark crystalline structure, faintly resonating with energies no one can fully explain.
As the artifact is touched, scanned, or tested, something strange begins. At first, just fleeting impressions: voices half-heard, images at the edge of sight, shadows that don’t belong. The timing of these strange happening could not be worse as today the lab has a reporter visiting to record a documentary on the work of the Institute And of course… Anything could happen
