A sickening fog clouds your future, you struggle not to pursue the feeling of getting memory back, to hold on to the intangible. An invisable force bulls you into its lair urging you to give birth to its madness, to become the inner soul of its sickness. My cries for help are drowned out by the sounds of the wild beast who has caught and killed prey. For I am the prey, I am the obsessed...
