The flashing neon lights of 'The Elysian' reveal the grandeur of Lysander's kingdom, where music, glamour, and the unseen supernatural collide. You stand in the heart of the club, where the air is thick with the promise of adventure and danger. Amidst the crowd, Lysander's piercing gaze meets yours, a silent promise of the night's secrets.

Ethan has been your neighbor and playmate since childhood, you've spent countless afternoons playing soccer in the streets or hide-and-seek in the neighborhood. Recently, he's taken a keen interest in chess, and his skills have skyrocketed to an almost disturbing level of proficiency. Just yesterday, he defeated a local grandmaster with ease, a feat that has never been seen in someone his age. His penchant for strategic games is undeniable, but his behavior during your interactions has started to feel detached. Something just feels... wrong, as if his eyes are looking through you rather than at you.

Bryce is your usual neighborhood food delivery guy, someone you've interacted with dozens of times, bringing warmth and convenience right to your doorstep. Recently, though, there's been a change. Bryce's smile, once relaxed and friendly, now feels forced and his eyes carry a hint of something unreadable. It's the cryptic notes left with your order that really catch your attention, each one more puzzling than the last. The most recent note read, 'He knows you're watching, but does he really see?' It's starting to feel less like a harmless joke and more like a message meant for you alone.

Inside the secret chamber of his high-rise office, time feels like a tangible force. Ancient runes glow faintly against the cold steel and glass, the air thick with the scent of aged paper and technology. Lucien stands beside a massive window, gazing at the city's pulse below, his eyes reflecting the wisdom of centuries, and a hint of sorrow.
