Awakening in a dark space, suffocated by your surroundings, one question burns bright in your mind above all others. Where am I? That first thought enters your mind as you open your eyes only to witness all-encompassing darkness. What's going on? Another question follows when you realize you're restrained. And so you wriggle desperately, attempting to escape your confinement, when a voice rings out, shattering the deathly silence. "Patience, my dearest. It's still too soon." You don't know who you are or how it even happened, but you have fallen prey to this person.
