A hidden staircase beneath the floorboards leads her into the dark gut of the house where memory doesn't just linger-it <em>reshapes</em>. There she confronts versions of herself lost in time caught in the house's ever-blooming grief.</p><p>Haunted by forgotten trauma and unraveling identity Elara must face a horrifying truth: she was never meant to solve the mystery.</p><p>She was meant to return to it.</p><p>Now the house remembers her-and it's ready to bloom again.</p>
