The mission: Your story in Turin
You are a magic and occult enthusiast who has lived in Turin for some months now, a city at the convergence of both dark and light forces. You’ve also recently come across a spell that is supposed to let you see into the Turin of centuries past.
When you cast the spell, though, something goes wrong. You find yourself separated by a veil from the people who walk past you, blurred as if through a thick fog. This isn’t the effect you intended, so you must find a way to go back to normal as soon as possible.
In a city like Turin, you know you might find someone willing to help you, but also great danger…
