Inspired by Ninja Theory's Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, we proudly present "The Lost Ones". In anticipation of the release of Senua's Saga: Hellblade II, we wanted to explore and speculate on the journey of Senua between the events of the first and second games. From leaving Hel, to where we might find Senua in the opening moments of Senua's Saga. Our crew had been fans of Hellblade since its release in 2017, and after expressing our excitement for the upcoming sequel, we decided to create a short film together as a love letter to the series. Starring: Allison Dayne as Senua Michelle Pokopac as the Morrigan Blair Phillips as the Fomorian and Katie Nixon as Galena. With Furies: Megan Ciafre Marley Tressler Kristen Nielsen Katie Nixon Directed by Braden McClain So to Ninja Theory and the entire crew of the Hellblade series, we say, "Thank You." Thank you for making such a powerful project that resonated so deeply with your community. Thank you for your masterful treatment and care regarding Mental Health.

In an era where Divine Cores awaken, high schooler Wyatt Mercer awakens the lowest of the low — a Grade-F God of Gastronomy. Mocked and expelled from the academy, he's left with only one mission: save his gravely ill sister, Cora. To survive, he sets up a stall selling stinky tofu. But when a customer's Core unexpectedly strengthens after eating his food, Mercer discovers his secret power — whoever eats his cooking with satisfaction signs a pact, lending him their divine power. From there, Mercer rises through the ranks, and proves that even the weakest god can feed the strongest — and make them kneel as well.
