The Gathering Storm

The Collector is no longer content with isolated "harvests." A chilling wave of psychological breakdowns and inexplicable disappearances sweeps across the city, leaving behind a pervasive sense of dread and an eerie emotional vacuum. Elara Vance knows this is the Collector's doing, its influence growing, its hunger insatiable. As the lines between the living and the Echoes blur, Elara and her nascent network of allies delve into ancient lore and forgotten histories, desperate to uncover the Collector's true nature and a way to stop it. But the entity is learning, adapting, and actively targeting those who stand in its way. When the threat turns personal, Elara must make impossible choices, risking not only her sanity but the very fabric of reality. The Gathering Storm plunges Elara into a desperate race against time, as the Collector's malevolent influence threatens to consume everything. The whispers have become a roar, and the storm is about to break.
