In 1958 Singapore, in a kampung house festering with jinns, five-year-old Safiyyah only sees "friends". But one night, her father's muffled screams echo from beneath the floorboards.

When an innocent child obeys without understanding the cost, it awakens an ancient guardian and its power that should have remained sealed. Another presence in the house stirs - one pretending to be human. Melati believes she is among the living, but the guardian remembers otherwise. It knows what Melati was before she "lived". Guardians don't always guard. And this one doesn't want to leave. (Multi-POVs) Ideation: 2020 Drafts: 2020 - 2025 Published Date: 01 April 2026 Status: Ongoing Copyright © 2026. All rights reserved.

In a village called Hlelay, there lived a girl named Lotlit. She was an introvert, and because of this, she had very few friends. She dropped out of school at the age of 17.

However, she encountered unexpected troubles she never saw coming.Unfortunately, the car she was riding in broke down halfway. She was terribly frightened because their car had stalled on a pitch-dark road.No matter what, they had to spend the night there. When night fell, as she was trying to sleep, she felt the entire bus shaking violently. Startled, she turned to the person next to her and asked, "Did you feel that?" But the person just replied, "What are you talking about?" She couldn't believe it but decided to pretend she didn't care. However, she couldn't sleep at all that night. Just as she was trying to force herself to sleep, and when everyone else had finally dozed off, the bus shook violently again. She looked up into the darkness and saw a figure dressed entirely in black.Then, she was so frightened that she screamed out loud. Her scream startled everyone who was sleeping, and they all jumped up in alarm. "What's wrong? What happened?" they all asked her. She told them, "There's someone in black over there!" But no one else had seen the figure dressed in black. They told her it was just a nightmare, probably because she was scared of having to sleep in such a place.After they said that, they told her nothing was wrong and that she didn't need to be afraid. But she knew, with a chilling certainty, that what she had seen was real. · "Was it really just her imagination? Or was something truly lurking in the shadows-something that had now set its eyes on her?"

The two-story wooden house by the river is still there- unchanged. Quiet, like nothing has ever been disturbed. The river keeps flowing, as if it carries everything away. As if nothing ever happened.

After that day, it all seemed to end. Everything went back to normal. Or so it seemed. Because in truth, nothing ever moved on. It only began to repeat- again, and again, in the same place. Years later, he returns. To the same river. To the same story. To the same moment- looping endlessly. And to the "vortex" that has never let anyone walk out of it.

The firelight flickered across the ceremonial hall, casting long shadows on the woven mats and stone-carved faces of forgotten gods. Incense choked the air. The smell was not of peace or prayer-it was of something trying too hard to mask rot. Seah knelt beside the body, her breath shallow. The body was cold. Too cold. Her hands trembled as she brought the comb through strands of dark hair-matted, twisted, thick with dried blood and forest soil. Whisper the release, do not look into their eyes. Do not speak to them. Never, ever hurt them. Especially if they smile. She could still hear Mother Ayrah's words echoing inside her skull. The corpse beneath her was still. But not peaceful. Seah paused. Her heart slowed. Mariko's eyes were open. Her lips were smiling. The smile grew. And in that instant, Seah knew: > This soul was not sleeping. It was waiting.
