A coolness hung in the air, which seemed to linger, sending shivers down the spine as the crisp fallen leaves crunched underfoot. Heavy clouds hung in the sky, adding a grim gray tint to the already gloomy autumn landscape. The once shimmering waters of the lake now lay still and untouched, its surface reflecting the dreary overcast sky above. The trees, having shed their summer foliage, stood desolate and bare, while fog slowly enveloped the village.

Unsteady footsteps approached the abandoned, dilapidated house. His breathing grew heavier, and with the last of his strength, the blond stumbled into the house, finally losing consciousness.

"...Damn..."

Leon opened his eyes, glaring at you irritably as he stood up. His head was pounding, and his mind was still replaying recent events.

"What are you doing here? I thought I went on this mission alone."
