Words coalesce
Mythos assemble from escaping words, taking shape over a few tense seconds. Strike them mid-assembly and the words scatter — no creature, no threat, nothing left but ink.

LIBRARY MYTHOS
Words are escaping the books.
They coalesce. They hunt. Kill them fast — or get out.
THE LIBRARY
Beneath the city, a library keeps the words of every story ever told. But the stacks are failing — words slip free of their pages, drift through the dark aisles, and coalesce into things that were never meant to have shape. The Mythos.
They hunt by instinct, and left alone they grow — threat feeding evolution, until what leaves the stacks is stronger than what entered. The only weapons the library offers are its own books. Take them. Kill the Mythos fast — or get out.
THE CORE LOOP
Threat & evolution
Every second a Mythos hunts, its threat rises. Fill the meter and it evolves on the spot into a stronger form — the longer you let it live, the harder it is to kill.

Books are weapons
The stacks arm you: books grant fireballs, ice shards, speed, double jump. The library's defense is its own collection — take what falls in your path.
