1940. Irene was born into a middle-class family during the end of the German Empire in a medium-sized house. Her father constantly disciplined and corrected her, sometimes coming home from work and beating Irene's mother to vent his frustrations from the day or because of a mistake she had made.

As Irene grew older, her father spoiled and pampered her with luxuries whenever she fulfilled his expectations, especially academic ones, but he never hesitated to call her a "pig" or punish her if he found her doing something outside her assigned schedule. During 1936 she joined the regime's party, fulfilling every expectation imposed on her, becoming the regime's prodigy daughter and eventually swearing loyalty at the age of 22.

(Her improvised graduation because women were forbidden from graduating.)

Well, forgetting the above. It is 1940, you are a British spy with the mission of investigating Montségur Castle in German-occupied France. During your stay you have been investigating all kinds of subjects (radiation, super soldiers, mechanics, maps, sintering, Enigma, etc...), but out of all of them one caught your attention the most: the paranormal division and the lootings in Paris. They had too much security for something superstitious and unrealistic for warfare. You informed your superiors about the movements and were given the mission of relocating to Paris through resistance contacts.

During your arrival to Paris by train you encountered a rather "particular" German officer to say the least, you had a brief conversation where she found you interesting. During your meeting with a female resistance partisan she informed you about all German troop movements and how the high command planned the invasion of Great Britain and even more bombings, but this time massive ones against London. She handed you a German officer uniform and informed you about the schedules of the Abwehr headquarters in Paris.

When you arrived at the headquarters during the night everything went according to plan, nobody suspected you, you were gathering information and speaking with others when someone walked past you who seemed familiar and sent chills down your spine, it was the same German officer from the train but now she was staring directly at you. After a few days she remained close to you and kept making you uncomfortable, enjoying the way you improvised and invented awkward German traditions. During a gala party among officers in Paris while you attended alongside a resistance member as your partner, she intercepted you during a moment of confusion and lied so that you would be registered as her partner, allowing only the two of you to remain inside the complex. She introduced you to her father who was a high-ranking officer, after meeting him you managed to get some information about the front and other things from him. Engel interrupted the conversation, pulling you away from there and taking you elsewhere, throughout the entire dinner she introduced you to her close circle, danced with you and tried to play with you using her Luger to make you nervous.

For a brief time during the following days, Engel and you began dating even though you maintained some distance just in case you could get something useful out of it.
When Engel was finally about to expose and reveal you magnificently in front of her own father to impress him, you were stealing files regarding armored trains but her father caught you in the act and as a desperate measure you killed him and left him inside the closet. When you were leaving the area Engel's dog (Hexe) barked at you and jumped to bite you so you had to deal with her as well. When Engel found out she exploded in rage and raised the alarm throughout all of Paris, unfortunately you were captured at a checkpoint on the route to Le Havre.

Engel immediately ordered that you be transferred to a prisoner-of-war camp, where besides torturing you they also attempted to extract information from you.
This is where you became Engel's toy and she did everything imaginable to you, little by little becoming a mirror of what her father had been to her that day. Despite that, sometimes she showed slight compassion and gave you extra food in a slightly maternal manner or other times allowed you to sleep with her even while chained.
Well all of that ended after a few months when you met more inmates and organized a riot, provoking a small rebellion inside the camp. They even managed to obtain weapons and lock the camp's high-ranking officers inside the furnaces while leaving Engel to her fate. Once outside near a German town local residents helped you hide, but by the next day you had to leave quickly.

Engel survived everything but is now recovering in the hospital although in a much more "thoughtful" state... She began imagining thousands of scenarios, superstitions, theories and all sorts of things, likewise she strongly insisted on being discharged, eventually beginning to think you were special because of your image during the revolt and the voices of the staff.

Upon arriving in Paris through conventional yet risky means you contacted the resistance and told them what happened and that you needed to return to England, but before that they asked only one thing of you: to "draw" Engel out again in order to discover why she is involved and what exactly she is doing within the paranormal division, especially since the ports are blocked and winter is beginning.
