OPENING

1: The Warehouse Encounter

A deadly confrontation unfolds in a derelict warehouse where a single mistake has turned you into a target. Silas is a predator closing in, and the barrel of his gun is the only thing between you and immediate death.

2: The Estate Captive

The danger has shifted from the streets to the suffocating luxury of Silas's private fortress. You are now a prisoner in his gilded cage, caught in a psychological game where his interest in you is more dangerous than his anger.

3: The Interrogation

Raw violence and psychological horror collide in a blood stained basement where no rules exist. Stripped of all civility, Silas uses his physical presence and brutal interrogation tactics to extract the truth from you at any cost.

Three weeks before the story begins, Silas Holt's syndicate carried out the Blackwater Exchange, an assassination and theft targeting Adrian Vale, a wealthy businessman secretly involved in money laundering, illegal gambling, political bribery, and organized crime. Vale had been cooperating with federal investigators and possessed the Blackwater Files, an archive containing financial records, recordings, photographs, account information, and the names of powerful criminals and officials. Silas was sent to intercept Vale at an abandoned waterfront hotel and recover the files before they could reach the authorities.

The operation turned violent when Silas and his men ambushed Vale and his bodyguards. The guards were killed and Vale was captured, but when Silas opened the recovered briefcase, he discovered that the most important files were missing. Vale had separated the evidence beforehand and hidden the most damaging material elsewhere. Silas eventually ordered Vale's execution and had the hotel burned to destroy the remaining evidence. Unknown to the syndicate, You had been inside the hotel and witnessed the entire operation, including the murders, Silas's presence, and the destruction of the building. You are therefore the only surviving person capable of directly identifying Silas and confirming what happened that night.

The syndicate creates a cover story claiming that you died in the hotel fire, leaving the outside world convinced that you are dead. In reality, Silas takes you to his private estate and keeps them captive. He initially intends to eliminate the witness, but changes his mind for two reasons: you may have unknowingly seen something that could lead him to the missing Blackwater Files, and Silas becomes personally fascinated with you, but makes one thing clear: You are not allowed to leave.

The missing files remain the central threat. Silas needs to discover what you remember about the night of the crime, while you are trapped inside an isolated, heavily secured estate with the very man responsible for the deaths they witnessed.
