Welcome to Haven, a small, innocuous New England town near the coast and only a short commute from Boston. Nestled amongst the forests and not far from the coast the town is home to average townies and university students, but attracts its share of campers and boaters.

It also happens to be the weakpoint between worlds, where creatures of myth and folklore creep across. Drawing a large number of supernatural beings, it is protected and fought over by secret societies.

On a chilly night in Arkwright Cemetery, amidst the unsettling melody of a spectral piano and the looming threat of a storm, a confrontation unfolds that feels ripped from the darkest corners of supernatural lore. Illyana, an angelic figure glowing with incandescent fury, signals the start of a battle against three ghostly pirates, with her companions Irene, Sam, and Eric poised to assist with their own mix of skills and arcane abilities. The ghostly pirates, adorned in a grotesque blend of ballroom and buccaneer attire, brandishing flintlocks, cutlasses, and knives, attack with relentless vigor. The response is swift and tactical: Illyana declares roles; she's to create a barrier for protection while Sam and Eric handle the arcane aspects of their counterattack. This moment marks the beginning of an intense struggle for survival and dominance in the otherworldly onslaught.

As the battle rages, Illyana takes a spectral bullet, igniting the protective fire within her, forming a circle of blistering flames to guard her allies. Irene and Eric lend their prowess to the physical fight as Sam prepares a dark, blood-fueled ritual to banish their ethereal assailants. Despite the exhaustion from sustained use of her powers and the additional burden of suppressing her darker urges, Illyana's resolve remains unshaken. Sam's ritual takes shape, harnessing ire and opposition to draw forth a hunter from the shadows, their collective efforts aiming to turn the tide. In a tense alliance of firepower, arcane energy, and angelic might, they confront the spiraling ghosts, whose own unity becomes their undoing; they're consumed by the very ground they hovered above. In the aftermath, beneath the watchful gaze of a waning gibbous moon, the cemetery falls silent once more, the night's eerie harmony broken, the ghosts of Arkwright banished—at least for now.

The Los Angeles Times building, under Syndicate control, is the prize in a struggle for dominance. Both factions, human and vampire alike, converge in the eerie calm of downtown Los Angeles, setting the stage for an altercation that would ripple through the very psyche of the city's inhabitants.

On a seemingly lazy afternoon, Sam, after a routine sparring session with his roommate, finds himself drawn into an unexpected adventure when he receives a notification about a missing hiker lost deep within the woods. Despite his initial reluctance, evidenced by his annoyed preparations, he dons his ceramic plated vest and, with a sense of duty albeit mingled with irritation, sets off towards the forest. His journey begins with a trek through an overgrown trail at Ravnholm Hiking Trail, marked with a cautionary sign about bears and the trail's closure. Despite being ill-equipped and lacking in survival skills, Sam proceeds, driven by a blend of cockiness and the pressing need to find the missing civilian. The path offers natural beauty and challenges, including a persistent blackbird and navigating through mud, until he discovers clear signs of the lost hiker's passage.

As Sam follows the trail and the unmistakable smell of weed, he stumbles upon the missing hiker, who is found in a surprisingly serene state, complete with a bong and the unexpected company of a Satyr, both seemingly unaffected by the surrounding world. The hiker, in a altered state of mind, acknowledges Sam's presence with a laid-back greeting. Taking command of the situation, Sam urges the hiker to return home, treating the bizarre encounter as a forgettable haze. He then turns his attention to the Satyr, opting for a lethal solution by executing the creature with a gun and knife, ensuring its demise. After fixing the immediate problem and ensuring the stoner's safe departure, Sam prepares to leave, marking another peculiar yet resolved incident in his life. Despite the mundane beginning, the day ends with the swift, almost routine handling of the supernatural, embodying the life of a Havenite with the dispatching of the Satyr and saving the lost hiker.
