Storyline

It is dark. It is lonely. You don't belong in this world. It's not that it’s a hostile world... it's just... not yours. As you uncover its secrets, the world grows on you. It takes on a feel of familiarity, yet you know that you've only probed the surface. The more you discover, the more you realize how much more there is to discover. Secrets leading to more secrets. You recall the feeling of zooming closer and closer in on a very high-resolution photo. As you hone your focus, the world betrays its secrets.
