Eve's Temptation



While exploring a decrepit laboratory, I stumbled upon a mysterious room filled with newspaper clips meticulously pinned to a corkboard. The tale, woven together with pieces of red string, revolved around the EVAS corporation. Are they the ones responsible for what is happening to me? As I unravelled clues and bits of information, I saw a narrative that seemed straight out of a dystopian novel.

It all began in the middle of the 21st century when a sudden surge in pollution plagued the world. This catastrophic event triggered a toxic epidemic called The Blight. The Blight spread like wildfire, ravaging the planet with its deadly and unfamiliar diseases. It began its sinister conquest by targeting plants and animals, but it wasn't long before it started to affect humans, putting our kind on the brink of extinction.



During this chaos, pharmaceutical corporations raced to discover a cure. My attention got turned to a firm known as EVAS. This name instantly felt familiar as their logo was plastered on almost every document I have found so far. It turns out that the native inhabitants of this island showcased an astonishing immunity to the blight, and a team of EVAS scientists was dispatched here to investigate.

The next part seems like something completely out of this world. I discovered that a powerful earthquake struck this region in the early 21st century, reshaping the landscape and giving birth to an extraordinary phenomenon. From the river coursing through the island emerged a mysterious substance – a greenish elixir possessing remarkable properties.

The news of this anomaly spread, turning the island into a tourist hotspot for several years. The townsfolk even rebranded their sole settlement as the marketing-savvy Green River. The water from this fabled river mirrored the miraculous effects of renowned mountain springs, strengthening the human body but falling short of miraculous healings. Eventually, the allure of Green River diminished, and the medicinal wonders of this substance were forgotten. Only a few island inhabitants, along with the flora and fauna, continued to bask in its blessings.



As the scientists of EVAS delved into their research, they discovered that the greenish water held a miraculous substance – a panacea capable of not only curing the blight but also shielding against the epidemic. Fuelled by this groundbreaking revelation, EVAS decided to start mass production. The substance was extracted from the river's waters, purified, and introduced to the market under the name Serum – a beacon of hope, marking the arrival of a new generation of medicine.

From that moment on, EVAS has become famous worldwide and started to introduce even more potent types of Serum. Some could even alter the body functions – increase intelligence, speed, or in some cases – prolong life. As their appetite for success and money grew, they started to test more advanced mixtures that were designed specifically for the elites. This could be why I was here in the first place. Was I one of their guinea pigs? If only I could remember more about how and when I got here – and what has happened to this place. Let’s hope I’ll find more clues further on the way.

Fight to the death



On one of my latest excursions, I stumbled across a boar in a grotesque form that sent shivers down my spine. Its flesh was torn, exposing raw muscle, while its eyes glowed a haunting green. I knew that if I didn't fight, this beast would surely overpower me.

As the creature charged towards me, I dodged its swipes, narrowly avoiding its razor-sharp tusks. Its strength was immense, and each blow felt like a sledgehammer against my body. I needed an advantage, something to level the playing field.

With a quick decision, I reached into my pack and retrieved a vial containing a mixture of Serum. I injected it into my arm, feeling an immediate surge of power. My senses sharpened, my muscles tightened, and a newfound confidence coursed through my veins. I leaped towards the boar, my movements faster and more precise than ever before.



With a series of calculated strikes, I managed to land blows on the boar, exploiting its weaknesses. The Serum coursing through me heightened my reflexes, allowing me to dodge its attacks with ease. The fight raged on, and I could feel the strain on my body, but I refused to give up.

Summoning every ounce of strength, I launched a final, devastating attack. With a precise strike, I plunged my spear into the boar's exposed flank, piercing through its decaying flesh. The creature let out a loud shriek, and its body convulsed before collapsing to the ground.

I stood there, breathing heavily, my body covered in sweat and dirt. The fight had taken its toll on me, but I had emerged victorious. The Serum mixture had given me the edge I needed to defeat the mutated boar, but what will be the cost?

As I took a moment to recover, I kept thinking about other horrors this island could hold. Would I be able to survive the next encounter? Only time would tell. But for now, my victory over this beast was a testament to my will to survive in this unforgiving world of Serum-infested nightmares.

This device should help me endure



It wasn't long after I found myself stranded in this strange place before I stumbled upon the plans for a Growing Table. Building this device would allow me access to a sustainable source of Serum from plants already growing on this island. I had to make it my top priority to craft one.



In my short time here, I’ve learned that Serum running through the plants was essential for survival on the island. The flora doesn’t offer much in quantity of the substance, but with enough plants, I can get ready for excursions deeper into the unknown.

Growing the plants turned out to be an easy task, but In the long run, I needed a more reliable source. The Growing Table lamps consume a lot of power, and that is a scarce resource in this forsaken place.



As I continued to explore the island, I encountered more and more strange creatures, all affected by the Serum – most of them hostile. But no matter what, I knew the Growing Table was only a short-term solution. If I wanted more Serum, I had to get ready to fight for it.
