Soon, Charles realizes that he is starting to change into something inhuman. While he battles to retain his humanity, Yuxin sets out to find him. Together with the drifter, River, they confront the evil lurking within the mountain's depths, and enter a world of horror that is ruled by the relation between the hunter and its prey.
