''Where did everybody go?''
''You are confused.''
''Of course I am confused. What is going on in this village ma'am? Something is terribly wrong.''
''Why do you trust me young man?''
''I... I don't know.''
''Do you know why are you in this village?''
''No. I don't know. I woke up in here.''
''Why are you alive young man?''
''I don't know. The doctor in the village patched me up.''
''And you believed that.''
''Yes... I did. I mean they are all weird but I believed that.''
''No young man. You are here because I need you. You are alive because I rescued you. You trust me because I can show you a way to find Zoe.''
''What?! Do you know Zoe? Is she alright. Did.. did you rescued her too?''
''I won't tell you yet. You may turn your back against me if I tell you now. First, you will help me.''
''You... okay. Okay fine. I will help you. What do you want?''
''You need to know some things first. Come with me.''
We went to a mill. Weird. I didn't see the mill before. I... I don't know what to believe anymore.
''Sit.''
''Okay.''
''Now listen. You don't know about this village but I do. Me and many others came to this village a long time ago. We lived in harmony for years until.. until something dark came. I don't know what that is. I thought it was a human but as the days past I realised it's not a human. It was like uh... a spirit or something. I still don't know yet. It captured all people's souls in this village. Except me. Except. Me. And I think I know the reason why. Because it knew that I will ask for help. It knew that I will bring it new souls. The only reason that you are still alive is because you are inside of this mill. I built this mill to save people but darkness cursed it. You can only see it in the evening and when you see it... Well. It's too late. Darkness already embraced you. But you.. you are clear. You are with the light. And I am the light. Do you remember what do you do for living?''
''I... I don't.''
''Neither did sheriff. He was clear. I didn't recognize him. Then he just... he commited suicide. It's evening and you are confused. Do you remember anything but Zoe?''
''No.. no I don't.''
''See? Darkness is so powerful. You have to help me if you want to get out of this place.''
''What do you want me to do?''
''Get out of the mill.''
''What?!''
''You heard me.''
''Yes, I did! You said I will be dead if I go outside in the evening.''
''No, I did not. You will not die. Darkness can not take you.''
'How can you be so sure?''
''Because you remember. You remember something. You remember Zoe. Your love. Your first and last love. You would do anything for her. And you will. Her brightness will keep you alive. Her love will keep you alive. Darkness can't embrace you.''
''Okay, let's say I went outside.Then what?''
''I lived long enough. This village has taken a lot from me. Do you know what? I used to ask for help it's true. But now I don't. Captured souls are kidnapping people in the forest. And I... I tried to save everyone but I failed. But we can break the silence. We can save everyone together. I will die but hundreds of people will be saved. Just a small trade. And I accept it.''
''I.. I don't understand.''
''Just go young man. And think about her.''
