The mission: Your story in Bucharest
As a respected scientist, you’ve spent years in the dirt and sun, uncovering bones.
But now, you're invited to a delta where the past walks again. Billionaire Lucien Caerwyn wants your endorsement for a secretive project.
You accept, curious and skeptical.
The journey begins, and the unknown crackles in the humid air.
