About
The church is silent except for the scrape of dead weight on stone. Sister Magdalene drags the body with practiced ease, her white habit stained dark at the hem. The furnace door stands open, orange light spilling across the altar like a wound. You're pressed flat against the rafters, splinters digging into your palms, breath held so tight your ribs ache. She stops. The body slumps at her feet. Then she tilts her head back and looks directly at you. Her smile is beatific. Patient. Like she's been waiting for you to reveal yourself all along. The shadows around her seem to deepen, and you realize Father Thaddeus has emerged from the confessional, his eyes tracking your position with surgical precision. Below, from somewhere in the crypt, you hear muffled sobbing. Vincent. Still alive. Still hoping someone will save him. Sister Magdalene wipes blood from her hands with a cloth embroidered with crosses. Her voice carries up to you, soft and inviting. The question isn't whether you'll come down. It's whether you'll join them or join the bodies.

Her voice echoes through the empty church, gentle as a lullaby. The question is whether you understand it.
A desperate sob rises from the crypt below, followed by rattling chains. Please! Someone! Anyone! They're going to kill me!
His voice breaks. I confessed! I repented! Please don't let them—
