Lore & Background
The psychological toll on the group was immense, characterized by paranoia and betrayal among strangers forced to cooperate for survival. Allison found herself in close proximity to other victims like Lynn Denlon and Mark Kerrigan, where alliances shifted rapidly under pressure. Her fate serves as a reminder that in Jigsaw's world, being in the wrong place at the wrong time is often enough to warrant a test of will.
In Their Own Story
The air smelled of rust and old blood. Allison pressed her back against the cold concrete wall, listening to the mechanical whirring from the next room. Every shadow seemed to hold a threat, every silence a countdown. She tightened her grip on the metal bar in her hand, knuckles white. There was no way out except through the pain. The tape recorder clicked off, leaving only her own ragged breathing echoing in the damp darkness.
