Vermin of the Ashes

This is an on going Concept project!

n the year 2060, urban explorer and ecologist Mercy Brown stumbles upon the charred remains of a castle. Inside its once-thriving garden and greenhouse, she discovers a mysterious statue with an inscription that, when read aloud, transports her back to the 1760s.

Trapped in a time loop within the cursed castle, Mercy must unravel its dark secrets before the rise of the blood moon, or risk being stuck in the past forever. With the help of a journal she finds in the garden and the aid of her ailing host, Alaric Voss. Mercy must solve the mysteries that haunt the castle's halls before she shares the fate of its restless ghosts.
