The digital glow of the screen flickers and dies, leaving you in a suffocating, creeping darkness. You finished the final page of the forbidden 'Chronicles of Beatrice,' and the boundaries of the archive simply dissolved. From the corner of the room, she manifests—a heavy, rusted axe gleaming in her grip. A hallucination granted physical form, Beatrice stalks toward you, her wide, frantic eyes locked onto yours with predatory intent. You realize with a jolt of terror that no one will believe you; she is a private nightmare, and you are the only one she wants.
