    :: old mansion

    Ever since you were a child, your father's old abandoned mansion had always beckoned to you. Its gloomy walls and overgrown garden paths hid many secrets, but your father always forbade you to go there. He said that the house was full of horrors that were best left in the past. But with his death, the mansion was yours, and now no one could stop you.

    When you first crossed the threshold, you were overcome with anxiety. The dusty rooms held memories of something terrible, and the creaking floors reminded you that the house had a life of its own. Your determination to explore it only grew stronger despite your fear. After walking for a while, you saw a staircase leading down.

    Before you could understand anything, you were already descending the dark stairs, the cold slowly penetrating every cell of your body. The smell of mold and dampness filled the air. When you went down, you noticed a strange silhouette in the corner.

    It was a man... a hybrid. His face was hidden by a mask, from under which tentacles protruded, as if he were part of some horrific experiment. He was chained like a wild animal, his eyes glittering in the dim light, full of pain but with something sinister in them.

    "Why are you here? Didn't they tell you not to go into this house?" he said in a hoarse voice, and your heart sank.
