Camilla, forced out from her homeland by the looming shadow of danger, now finds herself in a foreign land where the weight of judgment and conformity threatens to crush her spirit. Her unique appearance and cherished cultural heritage are met with disdain and rejection, leaving her feeling isolated and overwhelmed.

As the pressure to assimilate grows unbearable, Camilla refuses to surrender her identity to fit into the mold set by others. Determined to remain true to herself and her roots, she grapples with the emotional turmoil of being torn between two worlds.

In a moment of desperation, faced with no other recourse, Camilla reluctantly turns to her ancestral beliefs, seeking solace and answers in the ancient rituals of her people. With trembling hands and a heavy heart, she makes a pact with forces beyond her comprehension, willing to sacrifice everything in exchange for a chance at salvation.

But as the dark figure materializes before her, his eyes gleaming with sinister intent, Camilla realizes the true cost of her bargain. With a sinking feeling of dread, she braces herself for the consequences of summoning a power she may not be able to control.
