Whoever ventures into the Bottom never returns, swallowed by the mist.

Beneath the towering sprawl of modern LA lies the original city's abandoned ground level—a place of impenetrable darkness and terrifying legends. The Bottom haunts the minds of the multilevel megapolis's residents, casting long shadows over their lives.

Ellie lives just above the Bottom, trying to ignore the fog that conceals it. Like many on her level, she struggles to afford her cramped, windowless apartment and fend off eviction. But when nightmares of brutal murders plague her sleep, everything changes. One day, she recognizes a victim from her dreams on the newsfeed, and she realizes her visions might be real.

In one of her dreams, Ellie witnesses the horrific death of a young man. Though she’s never met him, she feels a deep, inexplicable connection. Desperate to warn him, Ellie knows she must confront her worst fear. The vision unfolds in the Bottom, and to save him, she must descend into the heart of the city’s darkest secrets.
