Your scholarship is in danger, your friends aren't human, and something ancient is awakening in the dreamlands.
As reality itself becomes uncertain, questions of identity and transformation become matters of survival.
Just another finals week at Miskatonic University.
It’s shaping up to be a beautiful spring at Miskatonic University. Finishing your independent study is your only real concern. One night, you dream of a strange frozen wasteland full of monsters and ancient ruins, where a bizarre creature warns you of an ancient war that's in danger of reigniting. You wake up shaken, but not worried—until you realize that your classmates, too, seem a little less human than they did yesterday. To top it off, somebody’s ransacked the geology lab, ruining the project you need to ace to keep your scholarship, and stealing something irreplaceable—a deep core sample of very ancient Antarctic soil.
Could this be the missing item that the creature in your dream told you to find? Were the things you saw in the dream real? Was the quest you received more than the hallucination of a stressed sophomore?
Help—or hinder—as each member of your diverse group of friends and frenemies grapples with their identity in ways both supernatural and mundane. And maybe save the world, while you’re at it.
