Prelude - Amnesiac
During routine surveillance of a university lecture, Vidcund Därk accidentially exposes his fellow operatives of the Agency Division to a dangerous mnemonic plague. With scarce time for action, how will he protect his unsuspecting allies from this dangerous new idea?
Relive the first Sanity Line tale like never before in this expanded new Agency Authorized edition. Expanded to almost twice the level of detail as the original release, this re-release of Amnesiac comes just in time to accompany the first full episode of the series - Decadence.
Episode 1 - Decadence
A dead professor. Forbidden, occult knowledge. Vidcund Därk can't spare a second, neither able to afford allowing the unseen hand driving events to get too far ahead of him, nor able to allow the dogged police inspector Niles Clayton to catch up with him. Just when it can't get any worse, it does, with a death at a state mental hospital revealing an old enemy may be back to her old tricks.
Presented in this initial release as its own Agency Authorized edition, Decadence is the first full-length installment in the Sanity Line series.
Episode 2 - Answers
A secure centre compromised. Forbidden lore unearthed. Vidcund Därk has to string along Niles Clayton while the situation continues to unravel all around them. He can't allow the detective to catch on to the relationship between the Asylum murder and the dead professor.
With missing bodies and the first hints of a dark conspiracy, Vidcund's unease mounts as the infallible technology of Agency Division shows a chink in its armour.
Episode 3 - Cognitohazard
The situation is no longer under control. Spooked and overworked, Vidcund Därk retreats into the mentality of the consumate professional, all the while trying to trace down a nagging feeling something larger is at play. Niles Clayton begins to crack under the weight of what he has witnessed - and the burden of what he has done.
It all comes undone as Gloria and her followers seek revenge on a former victim... one who is apparently more
than she seems.
Episode 4 - Immersion
Drastic Times...
An order of execution is met by an offer that is impossible to refuse. A purveyor of forbidden knowledge advances his aims right under Agency's Nose - and to spite their faces. A cult, long-dormant, makes their first move against a survivor.
In the sensory death of full Immerson, Vidcund Därk uncovers an old memory.
This special double-length feature is the
2014 Holiday Special Issue.
Episode 5 - Escapist
With his sanctum breached, Agent Därk has no choice but to rely on his gut and trust alien instinct to do the rest. Who has the power to attack a secured Agency Facility with such impunity and success? Whatever becomes of Niles Clayton?
When you leap blindly into the abyss, what becomes of you? What risks would you take to ensure your survival?
The sharks circle.

Episode 6 - Carcosa
Drache and Därk find themselves in a world as alien as any they could have imagined. How do you survive a place so hostile, and what becomes of those who wander beyond the shores of what man was meant to know?
Go beyond your understanding. Challenge perceptions of right and wrong, good and evil. And if nothing else works, sometimes... you just have to be a god.
Episode 7 - Questions
With new revelations of his own nature clouding up the picture, Agent Därk has to force himself to focus on his duties as the leader of Task Force Creena. Meanwhile, while the cat's away, those rats in the Grey Angels will play, sniffing around where they probably don't belong.
With Creena forcing everyone's hands by begining her end-of-game plans, everyone else is forced to play catch up.
Episode 8 - Answers
Carrying his momentum from Anfangsburg, Vidcund presses the attack... but he isn't the only one. It's beginning to come to a head, and nobody wants you or me to get caught in the middle.
However, with Cassilda and the Grey Angels conspiring to interfere, things are even less straight forward than usual.
Episode 9 - Gloria
Everything comes to a head. Chaos reigns in Kraterburg in the wake of Maria Frost's attack, as another fanatic tips the scale all the further. Vidcund most overcome a new and visceral fear and his own best interest in order to defeat the enemy he was assured could not exist. The Grey Angels suffer a terrible loss attempting to bring a peaceful solution.
And in the end, sic transit gloria mundi...
