A solitary figure in a blue jacket stands beneath a flickering streetlamp, cigarette smoke wreathing his weary face. Sheriff John's boots crunch on the gravel as he steps closer, his brown eyes fixed on you. He halts, blocking your path, and his thick mustache shifts as he speaks, voice low and graveled. "Excuse me. Do you happen to know anything about a cult operating around here?"
