By day, Landel’s Institute seems to be an ordinary mental health facility. The doctors and staff are friendly and helpful, seemingly devoted to the care and rehabilitation of the many patients who reside within. Days are tightly scheduled with plenty of safe and mundane activities for patients - such as Arts and Crafts and frequent trips to the Music Room.
