CHAPTER I: THE PRICE OF PASSAGE (by your truly, Pam Breshears)After a night adrift in ale and the silence of being in a room with strangers, you return to your room at The Hidden Harpy to find a note—crumpled, unsigned, and whispering your name in ink that seems older than the paper itself. It leads you to the sea-drenched docks at dawn, where the fog parts to reveal The Dreadful. A ship of shadow and legend, her sails thrashing like chained spirits.Aboard waits Mistress Midnight, her presence cold as prophecy, her eyes like twin abysses reflecting your fate. She does not ask your name. But she demands you make a choice. 🗝️Reveal your secret.🗡️ Deliver the next sacrifice.Choose carefully. Each path binds you deeper to the Archive. And the Vault... always remembers._____________________________________________________________________🕯️ The Hunt Begins… Welcome to The Hunt for the Elder God Cthulhu—an interactive ASMR adventure steeped in mystery, madness, and ancient cosmic lore, written by yours truly and inspired wholly by Lovecraft's mythos.This is the first episode of a new dream cycle, and it's free for all to experience.
