The Ghost Boat of Blackwood Bayou
In the stifling autumn of 1880, the weeping sickness sweeps through the tenement streets of New Orleans, choking the breath from those you love. Doctors offer no answers, but the old folks speak of a lost riverboat drifting through uncharted swamp waters—a vessel carrying the legendary root-cure that can break any mortal plague. With time running out and your family fading, you steal a cypress skiff and slip into the moonlit backwaters of the bayou. The marsh is a realm of whispered legends, tangled Spanish moss, and ancient spirits who demand heavy tolls from those bold enough to cross their threshold. To win the cure, you must navigate treacherous channels, bargain with forgotten forces, and race against the rising tide. The phantom boat waits in the fog, but every cure comes at a price. How much of yourself are you willing to sacrifice to save your people?
