what is that light?
That light is just the flashlight reflecting off the window.
Look closer at the ceiling. It looks like there's writing on it.
There are three words scratched in the glass.

"WE SEE YOU".

...

Their fears are true. The shadows have found them. They have surrounded the building.

Ian and Luke stay completely silent, their faces pale with fear, like rabbits caught in the headlights of a car. A sudden pulse of adrenaline hurts their stomach. Are they... being watched right now?
Examine ceiling in previous room.
Holding their breath, they slowly retreat to the previous room.

Nothing has changed.
(srsl, they didn't notice it when they enter room?)

They carefully take a quick peek at the other side of the room.

There's a metal bar in the ground!

Hope Vortex added death ends. It will teach you how to solve easy puzzles like that spring button.

I have two variants how to use steel bar...

Ian decides to take the risk. Staying alert to the slightest sound or hint of danger, he carefully enters the room again and takes the bar. It seems to be a steel bar, similar to the one he found in his room.

Before returning, he examines the shelves, and doesn't find anything but dust.

Command: Throw steel bar up to window, breaking glass, letting shadows to enter and show you good ending.

Ok, one of two thoughts:
if there's water drain, why it's blockaded with metallic plate? Where should water go? I think there must be something and you can break sheet with this bar, but...
is it smart to make so loud noise when shadows are around?..

Does the bar fit in the hatch's keyhole?

Same thought here.

Well, now that I'm caught up with this story (:D) I have a question:
Luke wrote: <LUKE>: Okay, well... Let's see if I have things clear. These monsters, shadows as they call themselves, have taken out this city, or the state, or the entire world, for some reason we don't understand yet.
This might be looking too much into the wording, but do the shadows really call themselves Shadows? As in, did they really give this name to themselves and let humans know this? Does Luke have some sort of hidden past encounter with Shadows to learn this information?

Not trolling, I swear. I just happened to focus in on this statement, especially when the narration continues as such:
Narration wrote:However... he has the strange feeling that something in Luke's theory doesn't feel right. Is there a piece that doesn't match? But he can't pinpoint where exactly. It's probably nothing... he soon forgets about it.
Otherwise...hot damn, I'm ready for this story :D Also, I must remind myself to play this at night because

a) SCARES
b) I cannot make out the words "WE SEE YOU" at all. I should probably have a completely dark room in that case :D
