About PARRALYSIS: You open your eyes in a surreal space, paralysed. The only thing you can do is to scarcely move your right arm, and scribble. Scribble in a notepad before you to move forward. Towards a goal you must reach, despite something horrific trying to reach you. Create the cure. You don't have much time.
