Background[]
While trying to find an exit from the Dark Place, Alan Wake, who found himself on a dark and twisted version of New York City based on his crime books, is contacted by Thomas Zane, who tells the writer to head to the Caldera Street Station. On it, Wake discovers through echoes that Alex Casey had already come before him in search of the Cult of the Word, and realizes that he can rewrite the sections of the subway to further advance.
After navigating through the tunnels and stations, rewriting the scenes several times using the different plot elements he had found, Alan reaches the murder site, where agent Robert Nightingale's corpse lies in a stone bed next, next to his torn heart.
