Edwin opened an old box he found in the manor's basement, covered in ash and spiders. Inside, torn manuscripts, yellowed papers emitting the scent of a dead era, and small bones... seemingly human.
Among them was a black notebook with dry leather, as if made from human skin.
He opened the first page and found a sentence in clear handwriting:
"To keep the gate closed, it must be fed. Three sacrifices. Three souls. Three nights."
In the following pages: names.
Edwin Blackwell
Alexander Green
Lilith?
But the name "Lilith" was crossed out... and instead, it was written: "She has returned."
He began to realize that the matter was deeper than he imagined. That he wasn't just a victim... but a key. The blood flowing in him wasn't ordinary.
It was the seal. And the curse.
