Farron

You're part of a search team. Your mission is to find missing hikers in the Swedish mountains. The hikers vanished two weeks ago. There were five people in their group, including a guide. It might seem strange, but this isn't the first disappearance in these parts.

Your team set out to search almost immediately after arriving at the scene. You split up, but a new trainee was sent with you. Each of you also had a radio. The search was supposed to last no longer than three days, after which you would be replaced by another team, but even in that short time, something had already happened. You and the trainee explored the trail that the group had used for their hiking route. You chat, but suddenly realize he's no longer responding, as if he'd never been there. You turn around and, indeed, there's no one there. It's as if the guy has vanished into thin air, but before panic sets in, you hear a woman singing somewhere near your location.
Getting closer, you carefully push aside the bushes and see a crowd of girls and boys dancing in a circle around a huge bonfire, which they've decorated with local flowers. Among them, you recognize the missing tourist group. Not far from them sits your intern; tied to a tree and apparently unconscious. What the hell? You frantically fumble for your radio, but it's out of reach. You decide to go to your team headquarters to report everything, but a woman's hand covers your mouth. You catch a glimpse of her sharp gaze before you're cut off by her voice:

• Shh... don't make noise. We like silence.
