Synopsis edit edit source
The young woman—after falling into another world—finds herself alone in a decrepit, vast tomb full of caskets which store the dead, confused of where she is she begins to look at her surrounding flashing the light from her iPhone around and calling out to see if anyone else is there. After recovering from a small panic, she begins to head aimlessly to the left but after hours of fruitless travelling she stops to inspect her current area finding engravings on one of the tombs. Reading the words she finds something odd in the writing and begins to look at the tombs nearby finding the same oddity with the brackets and levels next to the name of the deceased.
Having a hard time knowing what real she starts to recite lines to keep herself from panicking, she thinks on how her family will react to her disappearance but stops herself from digging any deeper resolving to staying alive. Wanting to know if her situation was real or not, she pushes the lid on one of the tombs making a slight opening for her to look into finding the corpse inside to being very real. Believing that it's all real she flees screaming in terror, long after she has fled something observes the desecrated tomb replacing the stone lid and then follows the only sound in ages.
After nine hours of running exhaustion kicks in, she again looks at the tombs seeing that there's a story being told by the tombs that gives a small window into the lives of the dead. She notices that she is in fact travelling deeper into the tomb and collapses in a moment of weakness, she picks herself up knowing that there's no one there to rescue her other than herself and starts to walk again. Sixteen hours later she has passed by the first tomb she had inspected reading the tomb of their daughter and her fate, she despairs at the fact that she is most likely to die in the place as she has no water or food to keep her alive.
Hours of darkness and fatigue has worn her down beginning to hallucinate; she might've lain there to her death until she sees a light up ahead. The words etched onto the tombstone illuminate the area and reading them gives the woman the hope and strength to keep moving forward, she uses her iPhone to play a song with her singing along to the tune. The song speaks to her smothering her fears as she collapses to her slow death, she wakes up questioning after receiving a system message about her new class and skills.
