Dear reader,
Don’t look behind you. Slowly rise and exit the room. No matter what you feel, no matter what you hear, keep your eyes forward, don’t look behind you.
There’s so much I should explain, but the itch is growing too strong, I cannot resist much longer.
I will fail- I don’t want you to do the same. Keep moving forward, don’t peek in the shadows or risk the glance over your shoulder, please.
I’ll make sure this reaches you before I succumb to the temptation. Please don’t join me in my fate.
Sincerely,
The prior victim.

The Nine Brothers and the Celestial Bride
In a time when the world was young and untamed, nine brothers dwelled together, united in kinship and labor. They tilled the fertile earth and hunted the wild beasts, their lives a harmonious blend of toil and camaraderie. Yet, one fateful day, a perplexing mystery befell them. Upon their fields, they toiled by sunlight, only to find their efforts undone by moonlight, as if the earth itself rebelled against their industry.
