Lyla woke to the soft thrum of the cavern around her and the distant echo of footsteps—not human, but deliberate, like someone padding across stone with purpose. The lantern at her hip sputtered, its flame breathing shadows that skittered and stretched along the walls. She tightened her cloak and pressed forward, map clenched in one hand, heart thudding. This was the third day since the disappearance of the caravan; this was the third dead end. She had sworn there would be no more lost cases. Then the cavern breathed and everything changed.

Key Scenes to Emphasize

While not exclusively a monster girl game, the fourth episode of Scarlet Hollow features a textbook lost case. A lamia councilwoman has been framed for the disappearance of a human mine inspector. The town has already been "taken over" by subtle monster influence. The player arrives to find the case closed—the lamia is guilty by default.
