Two hundred miles north of the town of Basco sits The Border. It’s a quiet, off-the-grid settlement, where the residents have developed a tentative agreement with those that live on the other side of the clearing. But things are about to change forever.

On the outskirts of town hides a secret. If you follow a path through the trees, read the rules (always twice) on the sign post, go up a hill and across a grassy clearing, that secret will reveal itself. You see, for hundreds of years, this seemingly normal town has kept the balance. But on this day, a rule will be broken. You might have heard the rumors shared in whispers. You may have been told about someone who’d seen it with their own eyes. But now, on this day, you’ll join us. You’ll see just what the town’s been hiding, protecting for centuries.

But what happens when you can’t control the creature anymore?
