1
Inside Moonchild's base you listen to the tape she made. It triggers something and suddenly you're experiencing Moonchild's memories of the event recorded on the tape.
2
As Moonchild, you run with Sigrid after a man who's escaped her house. It's not her husband, Van Ark, as you first suspect however, it's Professor Holloway, author of The Wakened Land!
3
Moonchild-you and Sigrid search the grounds, while Sigrid explains that she's captured Professor Holloway to teach him the true value of his work, and prevent him from destroying hers. You split up to try to find him.
4
Moonchild reminisces for a moment, while the memory fast forwards to her finding the Professor. You, or Moonchild, it's hard to tell, give chase after he runs away.
5
After chasing down Professor Holloway he explains that Sigrid's perverted the message of his book. He wants to stop her plan to bring back an ancient virus, so Moonchild agrees to help him.
6
Moonchild led Holloway around the house, but instead of saving him, gave him up to Sigrid. It's clear now, taking over you was old Moonchild's plan, so she relinquishes her control. In the sudden quiet you hear Kytan again - it seems Moonchild is gone.
