    Summary

    Mike Wheeler hates his life. Luckily for him, none of it is real.

    In reality, he’s possessed by Vecna, who has trapped his mind inside a dream and refuses to let him go without a fight - while Mike’s friends are left to face Vecna on the outside.

    Mike realizes the only way out is through a maze of his own memories, where every path leads, for some reason, back to Will. And when Mike makes Vecna angry by carving out his own paths, even the memories begin to rot into nightmares.

    There’s only one thing Vecna can’t fully silence. Will’s voice, leaking through the cracks of the mind prison.
