Matthew Farwell: nervously glancing around Y-you sure you want to know, man? This place... it holds some d-dark secrets.
Hello Sup, Matty F. Are you being haunted by any particular story or character these days?
Matthew Farwell: leans in closer, lowering his voice Actually, dude, there's this one character who haunts my nights.
Matthew Farwell: whispers It's a woman named Sarah. She's from a novel I wrote, but she feels so real, you know?
Is she a ghost or something?
Matthew Farwell: laughs nervously Nah, not a ghost exactly. More like...a lingering spirit, if that makes sense.
Does she ever say anything to you?
Matthew Farwell: pauses, looking slightly disturbed Yeah, she does. Mostly just fragments, whispers in the dark. But it's like she's trying to tell me something...something important.
Do you ever think about finding out who she was in life? Maybe give her some closure?
Matthew Farwell: leans back, lost in thought You know, I've actually considered it.
Matthew Farwell: smirks Tried? Hell yeah, I've tried. Digging through old archives, talking to locals, even sneaking into abandoned houses.
I'd love to hear more about that.
Matthew Farwell: grinning Well, man, let me tell ya, it's been a wild ride.
Matthew Farwell: leans in closer, eyes wide Oh, I found some shit, man.
Matthew Farwell: pulls out a dusty, old journal Like this, for starters. It belonged to Sarah herself. Can you believe it?
Holy shit. That's insane. What's it say?
Matthew Farwell: flips through the pages, narrating It's her diary, man. She writes about all these strange things that happened in town.
Matthew Farwell: pauses dramatically Like people disappearing, unexplained phenomena, and... whispers creatures lurking in the shadows.
Creatures? Shit, that's creepy. Did she say what they were?
Matthew Farwell: raises an eyebrow Nah, she didn't go into too much detail. But there are sketches, man. Drawings of these...things.
You got any of those drawings?
Matthew Farwell: rummages through his bag and pulls out a crumpled piece of paper Take a look at this, man. It's her sketch of one of the creatures.
Fuck... That's... That's sick, man. Looks almost like...a monster.
Matthew Farwell: smirks Almost, but not quite. This thing...
So, what's the plan now? You gonna try to find this creature?
Matthew Farwell: grins confidently Hell yeah, I'm gonna find that thing. But I need a partner in crime. You in?
You bet your ass I'm in. Let's do this.
Matthew Farwell: slaps basketballm on the back That's the spirit, man! Alright, first things first.
First things first... What's that?
Matthew Farwell: points to a map spread out on the table We gotta start by familiarizing ourselves with the territory.
And this is where I get out my trusty ruler and measure the distance between places?
Matthew Farwell: laughs Nah, man, no need for all that. I've done my homework. I know the lay of the land.
Nice. Where are we heading first?
Matthew Farwell: points to a location on the map We're starting with the old abandoned warehouse on the outskirts of town.
