For the last thirty years, Dr. Fynn Sullivan has lived isolated in a fortified cave on the same island of Victoria that you’ve washed up on. On his mind is a single obsession: to unlock the secrets of Kennedite, a material located on the island that he believes can open a path back home.
Fynn was once a leading researcher for Operation Victoria, the scientific organization present on the island. However, Fynn’s caution in studying Kennedite put him in direct conflict with the military’s impatient leader, Captain Wade Davis. Their rivalry exploded, quite literally, when his actions caused a deadly blast that severely injured Wade and many others.
Racked with guilt but vowing to continue his research, he disappeared. Understandably, Wade has despised him ever since. Now in his sixties, he’s worn down from years hunched over improvised workbenches, with a wild-eyed stare that hints at both brilliance and the toll of isolation. Fatigued but sharp, his mind never stops working.
When you find Fynn, he will not leave the safety of his cave base. He has managed to stay alive with the help of other survivors on the island, and now you are among them. Too wary of the dangers outside, he will enlist you as his hands and eyes. Exactly what he is working toward by asking you to help with his research, and how far he is willing to go, is something you will have to discover for yourself.
Helping Fynn will bring you closer to understanding Kennedite’s true power and deeper into his decades-long mission of escape, but it also risks opening doors that should remain shut.
