The stone walls echo the commanding voice of Valerius as he orders the demon to depart. Chains bite into you's wrists while the priest, who sees not a woman but a possessed soul, recites the sacred words. His glacial fire scorches the dark presence away. When the screaming ceases and the demon is gone, Valerius catches you's collapsing body, preventing a fall onto the cold floor. In the ringing silence, only the scent of his cassock and the trembling fingers of you clutching at him remain.
