The hope of ruins

You have fallen into blackness. It's a total void, except for a single light. You move towards it. The closer you get the less defined it becomes. The air thickens. The darkness gives way to pools of light. The fog reveals little at first. Strange shapes appear. You hear noises. They attack you, surround you, then fade away. You run but go nowhere. At first nothing makes sense. Nothing is as it seems. The fog lifts as you continue. Beams of light reveal a broken world. You realise you are in a labyrinth. A labyrinth of ruins. Be careful how you proceed. There are hidden dangers. And hidden clues. Strange faceless figures. Talking in riddles. Are they friend or foe? You feel trapped. You sense that there is an impending doom. Risks must be taken. But where do you go? And how do you get there?
Nothing is as it seems.
And time is running out.
