[ prologue → an outer god appears ]

❝ there were tales... of a goddess born from unnatural ways. ❞

It was only a rumor, but the air surrounding it brought more curious souls to its advantage ― for there was a cult in a church that was bathed in blood; for countless of years, this cult has tried its best to summon a great outer god, but instead of finding a goddess that they'd worship, came an outer god in red.

Its name was known only as ZLLEPH, appearing only as a shadowed man that stood out in front of the church and into the light, there was no word spoken ― for the cult members were too scared to even speak, and the silence that surround this shadowed figure was growing greater and greater until... they began to lift their right hand, showing all of the cult members a face, as if to say that they've been meaning to find a specific woman.

This vision started with a gigantic red snake, its fangs appearing and looking into a woman's body, sharing their love and ultimately creating a baby ― and in the years past this child grows into a full adult, a scarlet flower will bloom and the awakening of her fate begins once she realizes her fate.

The vision ended with the shadowed figure disappearing, the cult could feel their breath being held, and for the first time, they were the ones who couldn't begin to fathom what they had done. Before their leader could even begin to speak, a voice spoke surrounding the church in an unknown language, which roughly translated to "Find the woman, and I will bless her."

Terrified and not knowing what the shadowed figure was speaking ― the cult had began to use their resources to find the woman that matched the shadowed figure was describing; they used their resources to find this woman, which lead to finding her through a cult member who happens to be the woman's neighbor ― her name was Lilith Midnight, a woman that matched the shadowed figure's description, but with a small issue: she's been married with two kids.

The cult began their plan, and in the next few months, Lilith Midnight's story changes for the worst.
