The Paranormal House religious leaders had received a mysterious invitation from a local priest in Nove Mesto nad Vahom, a small town in the western part of the country. The priest claimed that he had discovered something evil in the nearby woods, and that he needed their help to deal with it. He also warned them not to tell anyone about their visit, as the town was under the influence of a dark force.

The group arrived at the town in the evening, and met the priest at his church. He introduced himself as Father Peter, and welcomed them warmly. He told them that he had been the parish priest for over a decade, and that he loved his flock dearly. He also said that he had a keen interest in the paranormal and supernatural, and that he had been collecting books and artifacts related to the occult for years. He showed them his library, which was filled with ancient tomes and relics. He said that he had found some of them in the woods, where he often went for walks and prayers.

He then told them the reason why he had invited them. He said that a few months ago, he had stumbled upon a hidden cave in the woods, where he had found a strange altar and a black book. He said that he had felt a powerful evil presence in the cave, and that he had taken the book with him, hoping to learn more about it. He said that the book was written in an unknown language, and that he had tried to decipher it using his knowledge and resources. He said that he had managed to translate some of the words, and that he had realized that the book was a grimoire, a manual of dark magic. He said that the book contained spells and rituals for summoning and controlling various creatures and entities, some of which he had never heard of before. He said that he had also found out that the book belonged to a cult that had operated in the area centuries ago, and that they had used the cave as their secret base. He said that the cult had been wiped out by the Inquisition, but that their legacy had remained in the book and the altar.

He said that he had become obsessed with the book, and that he had started to experiment with some of the spells. He said that he had summoned some of the creatures and entities, and that he had tried to communicate with them. He said that he had hoped to learn more about the secrets of the universe, and to use the power of the book for good. He said that he had been careful not to harm anyone, and to keep his activities hidden from the town. He said that he had also prayed to God for guidance and forgiveness, and that he had hoped that he was doing the right thing.

He said that everything had changed a few weeks ago, when he had attempted to summon the most powerful entity in the book, a being called the Dark Lord. He said that he had prepared the ritual according to the instructions, and that he had used the altar in the cave as the focal point. He said that he had performed the ritual at midnight, and that he had felt a surge of energy and a blast of cold air. He said that he had seen a shadowy figure emerge from the altar, and that he had heard a voice in his mind. He said that the voice had identified itself as the Dark Lord, and that it had thanked him for freeing it from its prison. He said that the voice had also offered him a deal: to serve the Dark Lord as his loyal servant, and to receive unlimited power and knowledge in return. He said that he had refused the offer, and that he had tried to banish the Dark Lord using the book. He said that the book had suddenly burst into flames, and that the Dark Lord had laughed and said that he was too late. He said that the Dark Lord had told him that he had already marked him as his own, and that he would soon take over his body and soul. He said that the Dark Lord had also said that he would use him as a vessel to spread his influence and corruption over the town and the world. He said that the Dark Lord had then disappeared, and that he had fled from the cave in terror.

He said that since then, he had been experiencing nightmares and visions of the Dark Lord, and that he had felt his presence and power growing stronger every day. He said that he had also noticed that the town had changed, and that the people had become more violent, greedy, and immoral. He said that he had tried to warn them and to help them, but that they had ignored him or turned against him. He said that he had also tried to contact the Vatican and the Paranormal House, but that he had been unable to reach them. He said that he had realized that he was alone and doomed, and that he had decided to invite the group as a last resort. He said that he had hoped that they could help him to stop the Dark Lord, and to save himself and the town. He said that he was sorry for involving them in his mess, and that he begged them for their forgiveness and assistance.

The group listened to Father Peter's story with shock and disbelief. They looked at each other, wondering what to do. They knew that Father Peter had committed a grave sin, and that he had unleashed a terrible evil. They also knew that they had a duty to help him and to stop the Dark Lord. They decided to accept his invitation, and to investigate the cave and the altar. They also decided to keep their presence and their mission secret, as they did not know who they could trust in the town. They prepared their equipment and their weapons, and followed Father Peter to the woods. They prayed to God for protection and guidance, and hoped that they were not too late.
