Their nightly adventure leads them deep into a forbidden forest-a place shrouded in darkness, whispers, and chilling tales. What begins as an innocent escapade quickly turns into a nightmare when they stumble upon a glowing pond and a mysterious girl. As her true, monstrous form is revealed, Lucian is forced to confront horrors beyond his comprehension, losing his closest friend in the process.

Unknowingly harboring an anomaly within himself, Lucian's survival marks the beginning of a battle not just with the supernatural, but with the organization that saved-and now threatens-him. As secrets unravel and dangers escalate, Lucian must uncover the truth about himself, his world, and the organization that hides more than it reveals.
