Hope is a lie; only brutal struggle remains in this world drowned in cynicism and sheer cruelty.

The Chamber's numerous alcoves hold unsettling displays of controlled decay, where living organisms are slowly, meticulously broken down, their suffering observed as a form of worship. Those who enter seek not healing, but a deeper connection to the inev
