As they unravel the truth, betrayal festers within their ranks, jeopardizing their mission and their lives. The group must navigate treacherous terrain, battle undead horrors, and confront painful truths about their forgotten past, all while facing the ultimate question: can their newfound knowledge save or doom them?
