time is at a stand still here.
I’ve seen these two cloaked figures moving through
the woods, they’ve been chanting something. I
think it goes something like
‘shrouded by darkness, we wait to be hunted’
I try my best to hide from them, but I’ve been
hearing them more often and I fear they’re close to
finding me.
Between them and the howling, my fear hasn’t
allowed me a moment of rest”
