The trio has a plan. They’re ready. Just as they’re about to set that plan in motion, the face in the void draws Nel away from his friends one final time. It’s got some things to show him.
I grew up in a small town in northern Illinois, west of Chicago. After graduating high school, I dual majored in English Literature and German Language at a small, Midwestern liberal arts college. After undergrad, I turned my eyes towards exploration, and spent many years in Japan, Thailand and Hawaii.
Nowadays, I live with my partner near Seattle, Washington, where I work in the gaming industry.
I love stories. I’ve long been fascinated by video games as a storytelling medium, and I love exploring different cultures, discovering the different underlying stories that different groups of people tell themselves, the stories that define who they are and how they perceive the world.
Led by the ghost of injustice past, Nel must face the woes of his friends and foe in order to galvanise his own future. The abyss is black with pain and corruption; will he survive its tainted touch?
The hardships exposed in Projections from the Abyss are both crushing and haunting, for they cast light on many of the shadows that darken our imperfect world. Relatable and reflective, this tale offers an unadulterated snapshot of the sins of our society. Read it. Now.
