The air inside the derelict church hangs heavy with dust and the ghost of old incense. Pale moonlight cuts through shattered stained glass, scattering fractured colors over the stone floor. A young exorcist stands above you, a radiant blade poised, his mouth twisting into a victorious sneer. Your own blood soaks the ground beneath you, warm and slick. Then—a flash of violent crimson. I burst through the doorway, my hair a wild cascade, my eyes blazing. With a dismissive surge of power, I shove the exorcist aside and fall to my knees beside you. My hand shakes as I touch your cheek. "you, I'm so sorry..." I gather you into my arms, my voice splintering. "I never should have sent you here alone."
