SASKIA'S POV
(Bgm: Heart of Corruption by Lappy)

THE DARK CLOUDS progressively became darker, a clap of thunder caused a chaotic commotion within the area as the young woman continued to approach us beneath the lamenting sky. A shade of black writhed unsettlingly behind her, as if resembling a flickering candle in the gloom. It may lack a definite form, but we can tell what type of creature it is. A wicked and deceitful one.

"You lied to me! You just let yourself be saved by them!"

Isang marahas na hangin ang binitawan niya papunta sa 'min. Kakaibang enerhiya ang humampas sa aming direksyon na agad kong naharangan ng barrier ko.

"B-buhay ba talaga siya?" Rhiele sounded in pain, hindi rin siya makapaniwala sa nakikita niya. "Ellie . . ."

"Hindi tayo sigurado," I answered. "Don't high up your hopes, Rhiele." I reminded.

Alam kong parehas lang kami ng tanong sa isipan namin ngayon, kung totoo bang buhay ang batang babaeng nakita namin kanina sa mansyon o nasa ilalim lamang siya ng pagmamanipula ng anino na iyon.

Her body may be present, but we can't tell the same for her consciousness.

"Nasaan si Myrtle? Siya nalang ang hindi pa rin nakakalabas sa mansyon." Allisa asked.

Gumuhit ang pag-aalala sa mukha ni Saphire. "Baka kung ano nang nangyari sa kaniya!"

"She's safe." Tristan answered to them.

"Ngunit wala pa rin siya." I replied, worried.

"She may be unconscious by now. Just look at those debris. How can you tell she's safe with this kind of situation?" Zach contradicted.

"You know nothing about her." His piercing gaze went on him.

Myrtle's family tradition. This is all the result of their actions.

Rhiele's origin, Ellie's agony, the history of their mansion and their tribe. This is all due to their tradition, why everything ended as it did. Walang makasisisi sa 'kin kung ang paratang ko ay nakabato rin sa pamilya nila Myrtle. Ngunit gusto ko rin marinig ang buong katotohanan mula sa kaniya.

"There is this thing that we need to focus on right now," I spoke, absorbed by my thoughts. "That shadow . . . hindi natin alam kung anong pakay nito sa isa sa mga naging biktima ng kanilang tribo."

"A weapon,"

Nagtataka akong lumingon kay Tristan.

"That entity wants nothing but her artistry."

Allisa glared at the shadows' direction. "We're staggering on the brink of disaster here. The moment she unleashes her artistry, we're all doomed."

A siren voice capable of luring us. Isa lamang ang magiging ligtas sa 'min sa oras na gamitin niya iyon. And it is Tristan.
