He was acutely aware that this was inevitable, understanding that it marked the end of his journey.

"According to people, I was a brilliant mind, a man whose name was synonymous with the study of the human psyche. Dr. Johnathan Elysium, history's greatest psychiatrist, dedicated his life to understanding and healing the complexities of the human mind.

From a young age, I was always fascinated by the intricacies of human behavior and the underlying motivations that drove people's actions.

As I embarked on my journey to become a psychiatrist, I set out with the goal of reshaping the way mental health was viewed and treated, aiming to debunk the stigma that surrounded it.

My achievements were nothing short of phenomenal. My groundbreaking research and revolutionary methods in the field of psychology transformed the way mental health was approached, earning me a reputation as a pioneer in my field.

I developed compassionate and personalized treatment plans, placing the individual at the center of the healing process. My work led to a deeper understanding of various mental health conditions, and I was instrumental in developing new therapeutic techniques that proved to be effective for his patients.

My passion for my work and unwavering dedication to my patients led to countless success stories, as I helped numerous individuals overcome their struggles and live fulfilling lives.

My legacy will continue to inspire future generations of psychiatrists and mental health professionals, as they strive to follow in my footsteps and make a positive impact on the well-being of others. My journey may have come to an end, but my impact on the field of psychiatry and the lives of those I touched will continue to live on for generations to come."

As Dr. Elysium was thinking about his past life, a sudden recollection prompted him to acknowledge a yet unfinished work of his journey: his book. "Ah, my book, I totally forgot about it. I must write the last line of it," he remarked.

The last line said,

"We are all villains at the end, some choose to change themselves for the world.. and some change the world for themselves..hee hee haw haw"..

*Cough cough

"No-no this, hee hee sounds awful, this shouldn't be here"

He scribbled his pen on the "hee hee" and continued to write..

"We are all villains at the end, some choose to change themselves for the world.. and some change the world for themselves.. The light they saw in me was the flames fuming beneath me, waiting for them to burn down into ashes"

"I guess..now..it's time to go"

Struggling to contain the storm of emotions raging within him, Dr. Elysium found himself overwhelmed by an unyielding urge that eventually led him to a desperate act. In a moment of despair and unrivaled desperation, he sunk his teeth into his own hands. The metallic tang of blood mingled with the salt of his tears, symbolizing the visceral and intimate struggle he faced. It was a stark and haunting visual representation of the emotional turmoil and inner conflict that pervaded his psyche....

The story of Dr. Elysium, the once brilliant psychiatrist, reached a tragic end. Bound to the haunted Whistler's Mansion and the malevolent entity that had marked him, he became a cautionary tale of the dangers that lie within the dark corners of obsession.
