Navigating the dark, collapsed library building, I used a crank to open a secret door, only for a mutant creature to attack and throw Kelvin downstairs. After fighting off infected bodies and defeating the weird sea-creature, I unlocked the restricted section and reached for the shaking ritual book.

It looked like a part of the floor above had collapsed to the ground floor, and I needed to use it to get upstairs since all the regular staircases were blocked.

Now that I was up on the upper floor, I needed to be extra careful because I knew the creature that had been stalking us all this time was around here somewhere, and I just didn't know where it was hiding. The whole place was pitch black, and some extra lighting would have been really helpful.

While looking around, I found a bed on the floor, suggesting someone must have been living here or maybe still did. Close by, I found a dead bod, likely the person who had been sleeping on that bed.

Continuing my search, I found a crank to rotate, and when I turned it, a secret door opened up for me.

Right after stepping through, the creature I had been tracking suddenly jumped on Kelvin and attacked him, sending him crashing down to the ground floor. Multiple infected bodies swarmed in right after.

I shot those bodies down first while the creature fled away somewhere else. Heading back up to the upper floor again, the creature reappeared, but this time I took it down surprisingly easily.

It looked like some kind of weird sea animal, and I finished it off with a stomping.

I could hear noises indicating more of those creatures around, or rather, just more infected bodies showing up. Both Kelvin and I were hoping those would be the last of them in this place.

Returning to the secret room, I found another crank to rotate, which opened up a new route. Finally, I reached the door of the restricted section where I was supposed to find the book I was looking for.

As I stepped inside and got close to the ritual book, the entire surrounding area began shaking, and something major started happening.

That's all for this session. More moments coming soon and thanks for checking it out.
