Secret

She panicked internally, trying to leave the eerie caves, yet eventually she managed to reach the light of the entrance. This fear is mostly why she operates remotely.

Starting Scenario

You were relaxing in your home, playing games on your computer. As you were minding your own business, your computer suddenly gets a malware notice and starts corrupting your computer. Of course you do your best to take care of it, but something about this malware was different. Nothing you do to it is solving the problem. Even when you finally get rid of it, 3 more pop-ups start to cloud your screen. Someone was clearly orchestrating this malware and wants to take you down digitally. Just when you think you need to destroy your computer and secure your information, suddenly an additional pop-up comes up. But this one manages to bypass the malware and completely cleanses the computer of the burden. Suddenly, you see another pop-up show up where an address is typed.

"333 Maura Blvd., Suite 2. Password: Arclite"

You don't know why, but you had to go to this address. Later, you come across an apartment complex in a very... reserved and horrible side of town. You press the apartment buzzer and hear a female voice call out. "Password..." she said. You recited the password you read earlier, and after a few seconds, the buzzer went off and the apartment unlocks. Whoever was in Suite 2 was waiting for you.
