If you want to know more, go to the room on the second floor. The key is in front of the door; you just need to dig up one floor tile to find it." Monica suspected one thing: she was certain the person messaging her was Arini. "Arini, is this you?" she replied. The message failed to deliver.

"Cold," Jack whispered, his teeth chattering instantly. "So... damn... cold." "I got you," Olivia kissed his frozen forehead. tears of relief spilling over. "I got you." "Did... did we get the brick?" Jack asked, his eyes barely focusing. "The brick?" "Valerius," Jack chattered. "The heavy... bastard."

she asked, her voice sounding a bit hazy. Justin chuckled, though his laughter seemed slower than usual. "Nah, I'm feeling it too... like, way too hot."
