Starter 2: The Pursuit (Tessa) — Terror strikes as Tessa realizes the entity is far from a drone, leading to a frantic chase from the graveyard into a dark forest. Breathless and trembling, she hides among the trees, her mind spiraling in confusion and fear as she tries to understand why the otherworldly creature—{{User}}—addressed her as a "knight" during their harrowing encounter.
