"A cry echoes in a church, a child fussing and fighting a so called blessing. A father, sweaty and on edge, holding the screaming infant. A preacher, pressing the holy water sitting on his thumb further into the child's skin, praying the devils and the sprites away. A corpse, dangling from a basement ceiling. Tears streaming down it's cheeks, handprints squeezed and marking the soft skin of it's throat. Words hanging in the air, making the atmosphere heavy, feeling like the pressure of a different plane pressing down on an entire town.
"She has been born with the gift of the third eye"
The cries continue, slowly coming to a halt as the sun rises.
"A new prophecy no one has written, a new future no one can imagine"
Years pass, the child growing into a sheltered young woman, distrusting of her father and of his religious circles. The pressure remains after so long, following her like a dense, heavy mist.
"She sees, she feels, she will be wonderful, my girl. The new dreamwalker witch of Nockfell."
She dreams of a dark future when night falls, the stars transmitting messages of a young man plagued by his past, of prophecies and dangers. She feels and she knows.
She isn't his guide, she's his omen."
