In the shrouded heart of an ancient forest, an altar boy finds himself ensnared in the chilling embrace of night. Each step deeper into the woodland labyrinth unveils sinister laughs and the spectral dance of the Korrigans. Amidst towering monoliths bearing the silent testimony of lost eras, a young soul's journey through darkness becomes a symphony of the arcane. This tale weaves the fabric of the mystical and the mundane, beckoning readers into a realm where the line between the sacred and the profane is as thin as the veil of mist upon the forest floorAll Rights Reserved
