The Widow's Locket

An elderly widow asks you to retrieve her late husband's locket from their old home, which has been condemned and is scheduled for demolition. Simple enough—except the house is haunted by the memories of fifty years of marriage, and the ghosts aren't ready to let go. Navigate through spectral echoes of the past, help spirits find peace, and recover the precious locket.
