Emra: (Frantically calling out) "Jay! Jay! Where are you? Answer me, please!"

Emra: (Panicking) "Jay, wait! Don't go further! Jay!"

After what felt like an eternity of searching, Emra's worst nightmare unfolded before her eyes. She stumbled upon Jay, not too far from where she had last seen him, but he appeared to be in the clutches of a horrifying black entity. Her heart shattered as she witnessed the unimaginable, unable to comprehend the true horror that befell her innocent son. Overwhelmed by a surge of emotions and maternal instinct, Emra lunged forward, determined to save her child. However, her valiant efforts were met with a sudden intervention from a villager from the mysterious, unknown village on the other side of the mountain.

Villager: (In a stern tone) "You should not have interfered. This is our ritual, our offering to the entity that protects us."

Emra: (In anguish) "Please, let me save my son! I'll do anything!"

Villager: (Coldly) "It's too late. You should have stayed away. Now, face the consequences."

In a tragic turn of events, Emra's life was abruptly cut short as the villager, driven by an unknown motive, swiftly struck her down, severing her head from her body. 

Unbeknownst to the onlookers, this villager possessed a sinister power that commanded the attention of the black entity. 

Falling to his knees, he started a chant, invoking a mysterious prayer that resonated through the air. In a twisted response, the black entity yielded to his summoning and transferred its malevolent presence into the villager's body and left the spot.

Villager: (Kneeling, chanting with reverence)

"Ruma, dark entity of ancient might,

From the depths of shadows, appear into sight.

With humble hearts, we gather and call,

Grant us your presence, ruler of all.

Ruma, we seek your power and grace,

Guide us through darkness, show us your face.

In this sacred ritual, our spirits align,

In your shadowed embrace, we forever entwine.

By the blood we offer, sacred and true,

Open the gates, let your essence break through.

Ruma, we beseech you, hear our plea,

Bestow your strength, set our spirits free.

In your name, we chant, and we pray,

As night turns to day, darkness gives way.

Ruma, black entity, we humbly implore,

Merge with us, unite us, forevermore."

As if in harmony with the unfolding tragedy, the dark clouds dispersed, revealing the return of sunlight and a seemingly normal sky. The storm that had brewed over the mountain dissipated, leaving behind an eerie silence.
