The Awakening of Delilah Eve

Delilah Eve and her mother are outcasts in their small village because of folklore and rumours surrounding Delilah's father. Her mother is mentally unstable since the 'incident' and Delilah is ostracised from the rest of the village, leaving her alone. Tormented by night terrors, one night she hears it - the music. Eager to find a way out of her lonely lifestyle, she goes into the field, towards the fire where she finds more than she bargained for.
