If we lose the war they have basically signed their death. Britain will hunt them and all the remaining, living soldiers and kill them. I need to chose whether to…

In the last paragraph I described the monsters and the Uncanny Valley in the terms of Silent Hill 2 the monsters are a direct manifestation of James’ mental state with the exception of a monster called the Abstract Daddy.

I am sick-disconnected-and out of humor.” The soldiers at Valley Forge wanted to move on and fight, but they weren't strong enough. They needed healthier soldiers to carry on their…

Dr. Ashraf Selim loved the heritage of his country and was asked to help solve a puzzle by using his knowledge.
