In a cold, messy and questionable town removed from most U.S maps, named Nesorina Valley, rests Lawrence Greene's Orphanage, a tall wooden orphanage for teenagers. Randy Johnson, age 13, is going to be situated there. When he and one of his original orphanage's staff members go exploring the orphanage, they discover it to be empty. Randy later discovers the bloody corpse of the staff member, and makes it his main goal to figure out how to escape the town. 
    
    (I'm not entirely sure if this should be rated mature. There's not going to be any visual depictions of violence or blood/gore, just sort of graphic descriptions. If it is what should be considered Mature, so be it. Recommended for 14+.)
