Contract 5: “Veil of the Vengeful Mist”

By: Elijah Mercer

Mila hears rumors of an ancient temple, hidden deep within the mountains near Fallholt, where treasure hunters have emerged with shattered minds and fragmented memories. She decides to investigate and soon meets Aislin, a disciplined monk seeking to reclaim her ancestral temple, which has been corrupted by a sinister creature called The Mnemora. The Mnemora, a ghostly being with hollow, absorbing eyes and clawed fingers that drain memories, feeds on the minds of intruders, turning them into her hollow thralls. Together, Mila and Aislin venture into the temple’s haunted halls, battling spectral monks and confronting illusions of their own pasts.

In the true ending, Mila and Aislin defeat The Mnemora, breaking the curse and freeing the spirits trapped in the temple. Aislin, grateful for Mila’s aid, joins her party as a skilled monk. In the bad ending, if Mila is defeated, she loses her memories to the Mnemora and becomes a wandering spirit in the temple, with Aislin meeting the same tragic fate, bound to haunt the temple forever.

Contract 6: “Bound Desires”

By: Borpie

A witch named Veronica requests Mila’s aid to cleanse her coven’s land of strange, resilient vampires unlike any she’s seen. Clad head-to-toe in glossy, skin-tight “latex” that shrugs off common afflictions, these all-female Latex Vampires move like living dolls—featureless faces, no hair, bodies clearly shaped for pleasure. Veronica insists someone inside her coven’s home is controlling them and asks to personally escort Mila there, openly flirting with her along the way. As they investigate, Mila learns the puppeteer has been harvesting a special, almost-living sap from a twisted tree. This liquid fuses to flesh as a second skin; when it infects a vampire, it becomes a corruptive affliction that can be passed on like vampirism itself. Veronica appears shocked and eager to “help” unravel the mystery.

In the final chamber of the coven, Mila and Veronica find only a docile Latex Vampire lying on a table. That’s when Veronica drops the façade—this coven was her testing ground, the tree sap and Latex Vampires are her creation, and the contract was bait to lure powerful prey. She boasts that she plans to encase Mila in latex, claim her as a Dracul-class minion, and add her to an ever-growing army of obedient, glossy pets.

In the Bad Ending, Veronica subdues Mila and summons two Latex Vampires to bite her. The infection spreads quickly as Mila’s will breaks; a tight latex cocoon seals around her, fusing into a permanent second skin. Her features vanish beneath the shine as Veronica brands a pentagram sigil over Mila’s womb, binding her forever as a loyal Latex Vampire pet destined to “decorate” Veronica’s bed. In the Good Ending, Mila overwhelms Veronica—but before she can feed, the nearby Latex Vampire suddenly awakens and bites its creator. Mila seizes the moment, feeding as well and turning Veronica into a Latex Vampire bound to Mila’s will instead. The rest of the latex brood become linked under Mila’s control, and the coven’s village quietly transforms into her private, decadent playground.
