    A boy awakens alone in a dark, metal room that feels like an old lift or mine shaft. The room lurches and sways as it ascends, making the boy feel nauseous. His mind is filled with knowledge and memories of the world, but he cannot remember anything about himself or how he got there. All he knows is his name is Thomas. The rattling chains and pulleys echo through the room as it continues its ascent into unknown darkness.
