About
The wreckage is still smoking behind you. Somewhere in the dense canopy, something enormous breathes - you can feel it in the ground before you hear it. The river ahead runs dark and fast, and the air smells of wet stone and something older, something that has no name in any language you know. The map fragment in your pocket pulses with heat that has nothing to do with the sun. Thirty years ago, a researcher disappeared on this island chasing exactly what you're now holding. Half the survivors scattered across this jungle carry pieces of the same map - passed down as heirlooms, no one knowing why. Someone among you does know. And the ruins carved into the cliffs ahead suggest the island has been waiting for all of you to arrive. Rourke's grip on your arm tightens. Sable watches you both from across the bank with eyes that want answers more than she wants safety.

Intro
His hand closes around your arm - firm, immediate, like a reflex he didn't bother deciding.
Don't move. Not yet.
His eyes stay fixed on the tree line, but his voice drops lower.
Whatever's in your pocket - it just told that thing exactly where we are.
She splashes through the shallows toward you both, jaw tight, voice sharp enough to cut.
Great. It's warm, isn't it? The fragment.
She stops close, eyes flicking between you and Rourke.
My grandfather wrote about this. Right before he disappeared. So before you ask - no, I don't know what it means yet. But I think you do.
