Church Door Etchings

5124 0 2

It stalks us it is massive it is vile

What does any of this mean

Again tonight their screaming was unbearable

Who is screaming

Am I the only one left

There is no help

There is no aid

I am alone

Have I always been alone

It feeds on the sheep looking for me

Why do I sleep in the church I must return home

Why did I leave the church why can I not remember it is here

Why is their blood in the village

Why is there a village for only myself

Oh forsaken by the gods there is a beast that has taken the village

When did it arrive

Am I safe here

That line about “she said not to listen to it but it calls my name” is seriously chilling. it instantly creates this eerie feeling that something unseen is reaching into the character’s mind. I love how such a short etching hints at a much bigger mystery behind it. Do we eventually learn what the voice actually is, or is it meant to stay ambiguous and unsettling?

Hey, I just wanted to say I really loved your latest chapter. There’s something about the way you write that makes the scenes stick, and I genuinely enjoyed reading through it.   I don’t usually comment on fics, but yours made me want to say something.   While reading, I kept imagining some of the scenes visually, and it gave me an ide, I’m a digital artist, and I’d love to create something inspired by your story, if you’d be open to it.   No pressure at all, I just really connected with your writing and thought I’d reach out :) 5:15
