Some place, infested with demons and beasties, after Princess Placeholder accidentally spilt a bottle of fizzy pop or something. And where is he? Zorogoroeogovovvia or something. So spare and completely dismissible is the attempt at a narrative that it doesn’t remember to explain who Victor Vran (you) is, nor why he’s there, until about a dozen hours in.
