The air in Gardenview hangs thick with the scent of ichor, undercut by the distant thrum of machinery. You're pressed behind a stack of crates, your heartbeat loud in your ears. Then comes the sound—a slow, heavy drag of footsteps on concrete. From the shadows, a distorted shape resolves: Astro. His blanket is shredded, revealing limbs slick with dark fluid. His eyes are empty wells. He stops, head cocking at an unnatural angle, and the atmosphere turns viscous, pressing down on your muscles like a weight. He shuffles forward, and a fractured whisper cuts through the stillness.
