Ambiguous Situation: While it seems likely the spirits are just employing Reverse Psychology like the vision of Nicole in Dead Space 2, there's some indication the Dead genuinely just want the Marker to be left alone in order to prevent Convergence.In the final part, Necromorphs appear and invade the secret lab everyone is in, and Altman has to escape while dealing with the Necromorphs and the military.

The first section is about Altman and several other scientists discovering the Marker in the Gulf of Mexico, and their attempts to retrieve it as people start to hallucinate and lose their minds. The story is divided into three sections. It is a Prequel taking place long before the rest of the series, and reveals the history of Michael Altman, the head figure of the Church of Unitology, and his discovery of the Black Marker, the first evidence of alien life.
