The bells sounded over the town. It is time for mortals to hide inside their cozy homes, as only a fool would stay outside after the twilight. A thick fog drowned the streets and devoured every building. You are not sure if you are alone in the fog, but you feel as if someone is watching you. You feel goosebumps all over your body.
'Everything will be fine, Emily.' You repeat to yourself. "Everything will be fine."
Walking through the city, you sometimes hear people coughing. You cannot estimate where the sounds come from but the fact you are not the only person around is reassuring. Apart from the coughing there is nothing but silence - no birds, no cars or pub chatters.
[[Continue Walking]] You continue to walk through this eerie town. The fog seems to be denser and denser as you walk deeper into it. You would like to go back home, but you are sure you are safer here on the streets. Here no wall scratches nor strange footsteps would disrupt you. Here no evil spirit would hunt you. Yet you feel something creeping right behind you - a sinister breath on your shoulder.
[[Continue]]
You approach a small fountain, lit only by a dim lantern. You notice a small bench on your right.
[[Sit down]]
[[Approach the fountain]]
[[Keep walking]]You sit down on the bench. You try to calm yourself down and breath deeply. Suddenly, you hear a crackle behind your back.
[[Continue sitting]]
[[Stand up]]The fountain is turned off. You can see hundreds of coins lying on the bottom. As you put your hand into a pocket of your jacket you find a coin of your own.
[[Back off|Stand up]]
[[Throw the coin into the water]]
[[Take coins from the water]]You approach a small building. Even though the fog obscures most of it, you know it's a church. You sigh with relief and suddenly feel safer.
The church seem to be closed. There is a small cemetery on the right of the church. A figure stands next to the gate of the cemetery.
[[Check the door]]
[[Check the figure]]
[[Enter the cemetery]]
You continue sitting. You hear another crackle but this time it seems to be closer.
[[Keep sitting]]
[[Stand up]] You stand next to a small fountain, lit only by a dim lantern. The small bench is behind your back.
[[Approach the fountain]]
[[Sit down]]
[[Keep walking]] Another crackle, then something similar to breathing, as close as your ear. You want to turn your head a little to see what is going on but before you make any move you feel something grabbing your hair. Before you can understand what is happening, you are already on the ground, lying on your back. There is something standing above you, something that reminds you of a demon. You want to scream but the demon creature grabs you by your neck. You try to escape, but he is clearly much stronger than you. You can't breath. You feel the world disappearing around you. Everything becomes so dark and so frightening.
Unfortunately, you died.
[[Try again|The Beginning]]
You throw the coin into the water. You can wish for something nice, or at least for your safety.
[[Back off|Stand up]]
You know you should not do this but your greed is much more important to you than someone else's wishes.
You kneel down to reach the coins. The water is much colder than you expected. You take one fistful first and put it aside for the coins to dry. You reach down again, but suddenly someone pushes you strongly enough for you to fall down into the water. You cannot escape as the stranger quickly jumps on you. You start to panic and unwillingly to scream, releasing all the oxygen from your lungs.
Soon after, you drowned.
[[Try again|The Beginning]]The door seem to be closed. There is a sheet of paper nailed to it saying 'The evening service cancelled'.
[[Open the door]]
[[Back off]]
You come closer to the figure. The figure represents an angel with long hair and wings on his back. He seems to be looking at you. As you come closer the statue seems to follow you with his sight. You look at his face and see small stains around the corners of his eyes. The stains, however, become bigger and bigger and start leaking down his face. You realise that those are not stains but red tears, possibly blood. Same liquid starts to leak down from his mouth.
[[Back off]]
[[Inspect the stains]]The cemetery seems to be full of something threatening. You are not sure if you really want to come inside.
[[Back off]]
[[Enter]]The door is indeed closed.
[[Knock]]
[[Try to open again]]
[[Back off]]
You stand in front of the church. There is a cemetery right next to the church. The figure stands next to the gate of the cemetery.
[[Check the door]]
[[Check the figure]]
[[Enter the cemetery]] You knock but there is no answer.
[[Knock again]]
[[Back off]]Unfortunately, the door stay closed.
[[Knock]]
[[Back off]]
You tried knocking again.
'Go away, heathen!' You suddenly hear. A voice probably belongs to the priest. 'The God's house's closed after twilight. There is no place for you here.'
[[Say something]]
[[Knock third time]]
[[Back off]] 'Sorry, sir, I really need your help!" You say. 'They follow me, sir! The demons.' The voice barely escapes your throat, as you think that things you are saying are true. 'I don't know what to do.'
The priest does not answer.
[[Knock third time]]
[[Back off]] 'Go 'way. You are not welcomed here!' The priest shouted.
Maybe there is another way to get into the church?
[[Back off]]You come closer. The stains disappeared. Shocked, you blink a few times.
It must be your imagination.
[[Back off]]The cemetery looks ancient. Gravestones are overgrown, the names are illegible. There are different figures standing over tombs, all seem to follow you with their marble eyes.
You have a hunch that someone is following you.
[[Look behind you]]
[[Keep Walking]] You look behind you, but you don't see anything.
[[Keep Walking]] It is probably only your imagination, but the figures seem to move. You keep walking forward, every other moment looking behind you. You quietly pray to your god, hoping he will help you in your misery. 'Our Father,' you whisper, 'who art in heaven.' You do not even realise you walk faster now.
You hear a quick, repetitive sound, like someone or something running. You look around and see a small dog, a crossbreed. He does not want to harm you.
[[Come closer to the dog]]
[[Ignore him]]
The dog sniff your leg and barks at you, but he seems friendly. He clearly wants something from you. He turns around and starts running towards the east side of the cemetery.
[[Follow him]]
[[Ignore him]]
You ignore the dog and keep following the path. As you pass him the dog stops to emit sounds. You look behind to check on him, but there is nothing there. 'Weird' You think to yourself, but you keep on walking. Soon enough, you are at the back of the church.
You see a pair of wooden doors. You know there is no use going back now.
[[knock]]
[[open]]You must walk faster to keep up with him. For a while you even forget about something that you swear follows you. The church disappeared behind the fog.
You two approach a tomb. It looks as old as the gravestones around. The dog stops at the entrance of the tomb and seems too terrified to enter it. There must be a reason why he brought you here.
[[Enter the tomb]]
[[Go back]]As you enter the tomb the dogs stops to emit any sound so you are able to hear a whimper. You look around and see a something in the corner of the room. It looks like a curled up person, hidden under a heavy cloth. You notice that the cloth is moving, so the person must be alive. 'Can it be a lost person? Or maybe someone in pain' You think to yourself.
[[Help the person]]
[[Exit the tomb|Go back]]You try to go back but the dog barks at you more aggressively. He now wants to attack you. You do not know what made him to change his mind but you have to quickly do something. You notice that the dog does not look as friendly as before, but looks more monster-like.
He jumps on you trying to bite you.
[[Kick him]]
[[Punch him]]
[[Run away]]You come closer to the person.
'Hello?' You ask 'Is everything alright?'
No answer. The person only whimpers and cries.
'Are you in pain?'
You touch the cloth. To your surprise the person stopped crying. In fact, the cloth fell down on the ground, revealing that there was nothing under it. You stand there in shock and panic.
You hear a noise from behind. You turn around and see a demonic creature in the entrance - a horned monster on two legs. Before you know what is happening, the creature comes to you and waves his hand at you, slashing your throat with his claws.
You bleed out as he slowly feeds on your body.
You die.
[[Try again|The Beginning]]The dog runs at you but you menage to kich him in the stomach. The dog falls on his back and stays down.
[[Run away]]
You sway at him trying to punch him, but it does not stop him. The dog seems so much bigger than before. You actually start to be scared of him.
The dog jumps on you and pushes you on the ground. You hit your head on the near gravestone. The pain immobilizes you.
The dog jumps on your chest and bites your neck.
You bleed out and the last thing you see is the hellish fire in the dog's eyes.
You die.
[[Try again|The Beginning]]You run as long as you lose the sight of the dog. You are now lost but safe.
[[Go forward]]You go ahead of you for few minutes longer.
You see a bright light somewhere in the fog and hear some chants. 'Maybe those people will help me.' You think to yourself.
[[Aproach them]]You knock at the door. No one answers.
[[knock again]]
[[open]]You are now in a room that reminds you of a poor kitchen. There is a small table on the right and a single stove with a pot standing on it on the left. In front of you, there is another exit.
[[Check the stove]]
[[Leave the room]]Still no answer.
[[open]]There is something similar to a stew in the pot. Inside there is a wooden spoon.
[[Taste it]]
[[Back off|open]]You are now in a corridor. In the midway, there is a picture on the wall. In front of you there is another door.
[[Check the picture]]
[[Go through the next door]]It tastes terrible. Somebody who cooked it does not know a thing about cooking.
[[Back off|open]]It is a picture of Mary. She looks surprisingly sad.
[[Enter the next room|Go through the next door]]You entered the church. It is one of the modest churches, without any decorations or expensive paintings. Only a dozen of benches and an altar made of wood.
A priest is kneeling in front of the altar. He is praying silently.
[[Disturb his prayers]]
[[Join him]]'I'm sorry, father' You say. 'I need your help.'
He stops praying, but does not look at you.
'There is no help for you, heathen.' He eventually says. 'The demons you are escaping from... There is no escape. Do you even know what you did coming here?'
[[Say no]]You kneel beside him. You don't know what prayer he is saying, so you start with your own. 'I believe in God' you whisper to yourself, 'the Father Almighty'.
'You should leave, heathen.' The priest says. 'You are not welcomed here.'
[[Stop praying]]
[[Continue praying]]You stop your prayer and look at him. He clearly does not want to speak to you.
'You foolish heathen. The prayers won't help you now. There is no escape.' He says.
[[Say nothing|Say no]]'Creator of Heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ' You continue to pray.
'The prayer won't help you anymore. They are too close.' The priest says.
'His only son, our lord' You continue.
'You fool. You stupid arrogant fool who thinks you can fix everything with some little prayer. You probably don't even know what you did, coming here!'
[[Continue praying|Say no]]
[[Stop praying|Say no]]'By coming here you brought them here' The priest shouted. 'God help us. Demons in god's house... the end is nigh, child, and it's your fault. You brought the end on all of us! Leave now while we-' He does not finish as something has jumped on him. Astonished, you look at the priest and see a giant creature, a demon with horns.
You feel something grabbing you by your neck and lifting you from the ground. Another demon, as giant and monstrous as the other one. Instead of face he has a skull. It gazes at you for a while. Then, he threw you through the church.
You immediately lose consciousness.
[[Wake up]]You wake up next to the fountain. Your head hurts.
You remember what just happened and you are not sure if it was real.
The fog disappeared but there still was something sinister in the air. You look above on the moon. The whole sky reminded you of blood. No stars, no moon, only a red sky.
You heard a crackle behind your back. You turn over. There is this demon creature again, staring at you, ready to attack.
You can only run.As you come closer you start to see silhouettes of people. They appear to be wearing hoods. They stand around a low table. The only light here comes from candles on the ground.
[[Say Something]]
[[Come closer]]You come close enough to see them. They all are indeed wearing hoods and capes. They are chanting in a language that is unknown to you. They all look like in a trance.
'She finally came' a man standing in front of you said. 'Grab her!'
You feel someone grabbing you from behind. You notice it is one of the hooded men. He puts a small piece of clothing to your mouth and nose. The stench is unbearable, but it makes you to struggle less. He pulls you towards the table.
'Oh, here they come. The first man pointed his finger where you came from. You are not able to see what he is pointing at. 'Our lords! Come and bless us, your loyal slaves! Bring the end to this wretched world! Accept our sacrfice, lords, and accept our request.'
The world becomes darker and the words become incomprehensible. You do not want to fight anymore so you just lie there.
You see a creature with horns appearing above you. It is a monster but you do not fear it. You know right now it does not want to hurt you. It just stares at you.
Another one appears, but this one does not look at you. It attacks the hooded man next to it. The first creature joins the fight.
You fall asleep.
[[Wake up]] 'Hello' You shout, but they do not hear it 'Hello?'
[[Come closer]]
