Together, they descend into the institute's deepest secret: a fusion of ancient ritual and modern technology, where the line between investigation and participation dissolves. What they uncover isn't just evidence of a crime. It's a doorway to something older, stranger, and far more seductive than escape. Some thresholds, once crossed, reshape everything they thought they were.
