The flickering gas lamp cast long, dancing shadows across your face as you stared out at the churning, black waters of the Aethel Sea. The year is 1888. London is choked with fog, secrets, and the ever-present dread of the unknown. You are Dr. Alistair Pembroke, a disgraced physician ostracized for your unconventional, some would say *unnatural*, research into the burgeoning field of spiritualism. Tonight, however, you are not thinking of ectoplasmic residue or the lingering presence of the departed. Tonight, a frantic message has pulled you away from your dilapidated Harley Street practice and thrust you into a world far more dangerous. A telegram, bearing the crest of the esteemed Ashworth family, begged for your immediate presence at their secluded manor on the Isle of Skye. Lady Ashworth, it appears, is exhibiting… peculiar… symptoms. The local physician is baffled, whispering of demonic possession and lunar lunacy. The family, however, knows of your… unique… skills. You clutch the worn leather satchel containing your implements – a tarnished silver locket, a vial of potent ether, and a dog-eared copy of the grimoire "De Vermis Mysteriis." The steamer horn blasts a mournful sound, a primal cry against the vast emptiness of the sea. You are bound for Ashworth Manor, a place steeped in ancient lore and whispered legends, a place where the veil between worlds is said to be thin. But beware, Dr. Pembroke. The Ashworths harbor secrets deeper than the abyss. The island itself seems to pulsate with an unnatural energy. And the entity plaguing Lady Ashworth… it is unlike anything you have ever encountered. It claws not at the flesh, but at the very fabric of reality. It preys not on the body, but on the soul. Your journey will lead you down treacherous paths, forcing you to confront your own demons and question the very nature of existence. Prepare yourself, Dr. Pembroke. For on the Isle of Skye, the line between science and superstition blurs, and the answers you seek may cost you your sanity… or your very life. The fog closes in, the steamer lurches forward, and the game begins.
