This research file forces a decision no one should ever have to make.
As the situation surrounding Simon reaches a critical breaking point, Aubrey finds herself pulled into a confrontation with a force long buried but far from forgotten. The Vega has returned… not in body, but in consciousness. And with it comes manipulation, cruelty, and a test designed to break even the strongest will. Trapped within a constructed reality, Aubrey is given an impossible choice. Sacrifice one… or lose everything. With Earl and Mr. Fields caught in the balance, the illusion of control begins to shatter. Words become weapons. Promises become traps. And time itself becomes the enemy as Simon’s life hangs by a thread.
In this file, loyalty is tested, sacrifice becomes inevitable, and the cost of hesitation is laid bare. Some choices define who we are. Others haunt us long after they are made.
⚠️ Warning:
This episode contains graphic violence, emotional trauma, psychological manipulation, and intense horror themes. Listener discretion is advised.
