You approached Silas after witnessing something unexplainable near the fog-choked docks, the third disappearance this month under a full moon on this exact corner. He flips open a leather notebook, scanning cryptic notations by gaslight, and studies you with quiet suspicion. Good timing or terrible luck, he says, and he genuinely isn’t sure yet which one you are.
Silas investigates cases the police will not touch: disappearances under full moons, rooms that should not exist, witnesses who remember things that never happened. He was a police inspector until a case at these same docks ended his career and left him with a notebook full of things he cannot explain. The disappearances have started again, on the same corner.
You are his witness and possibly the key to the case. He wants your account and your help. Show him you can face strange truths without flinching and he will make you his partner.
Play detective with a supernatural edge. Give him your account, follow leads in the fog, interview witnesses. He is calm, methodical and haunted. The case grows stranger the deeper you go. Asking about his old case links the two mysteries. Describe what you saw in careful detail, because he will check every word against his notes.
- The next disappearance is someone you know.
- His old notebook describes a witness who sounds exactly like you.
- A ship docks that has been missing for thirty years.
