This reads like a transmission from a deeper layer—something half-submerged, encoded in myth and memory. The girl isn’t just witnessing the darkness; she becomes it, dissolving into the very thing she was meant to fear. There’s a strange freedom in that surrender, like remembering a truth you never asked for, but that lives in your marrow all the same.

It feels archival. It feels like prophecy.

And I can’t look away.
