[Rules: Do not look directly at it; it cannot be described; do not listen to it; do not try to understand it!]
[Advice: Better to die without knowing why than to live in unbearable pain.]
This is a world that began to mutate after something eldritch swept its tail across it. Corruption is spreading...
Corrupted entities follow rules as they affect all things, or are affected by all things;
The heroes wielding corrupted objects must also bear their side effects.
The entire world is sliding irreversibly into the abyss.
In a world like this, what are people living for?
“To pick locks.”
Mo Lang nods firmly, then adds:
“And to sprinkle some ash on the eyes inside the keyholes!”
Only by coming infinitely close to madness can one understand the true meaning of reason.
This is the story of a guy whose sanity score is plummeting toward zero, as he tries to prove to everyone else that he's still normal.
