About

Includes Natalia and Jasper's routes. Your progress towards the truth leaves you desperate for answers in this tangled web of fear in Book Three: Despair Fragments. "Fantasy" has been torn apart, "belief" becomes increasingly twisted, and "despair" threatens to engulf it all. Book Three reveals intentions and motives that you may have begun to piece together through the previous routes, but what will you discover by examining that evidence from the viewpoint of the villain?
