9.7z: Cam

The camera finally saw exactly what his soul felt: .

He froze. His name wasn't in the game files. It wasn't his character's name. Cam 9.7z

The camera zoomed in further, closer than any mod should allow, until the screen was filled with the shadow's face—or where a face should have been. A text box appeared at the bottom of the screen, not in the game's font, but in a jagged, handwritten script: "Are you watching, Elias?" The camera finally saw exactly what his soul felt:

Elias walked his character toward the gates, but the camera resisted. It panned back toward the tavern, the Bannered Mare . He tried to force the mouse left, but the "Cam 9" logic overrode his input. The camera zoomed in on a dark corner of the tavern porch where a figure stood—a figure that wasn't part of the base game. It was a tall, shadow-like NPC with no nameplate. It wasn't his character's name

At first, nothing seemed different. He was standing in the middle of Whiterun, the familiar music swelling. But then, he moved the mouse.

Suddenly, his webcam light flickered on. The game screen split. On the left, the dark interior of Whiterun; on the right, a grainy video feed of Elias sitting at his desk. But in the video feed, standing directly behind his chair, was the shadow from the game.
