Story one Malevolent Influence


 





 Sean 1 session one The Dancing goat pub 

The scene was set in the cozy ambiance of The Dancing Goat, where Samuel Baxter, Janet Auguste, and Negril Lonburg gathered around a table. Their attentive faces were illuminated by the warm glow of candles, and before them lay a stack of papers and books, a testament to their shared endeavors.

Janet, with weariness etched in the lines of her face, engaged in a discourse about her latest literary work. Her words flowed slowly, each sentence bearing the weight of her fatigue. The atmosphere was one of camaraderie and shared purpose, as they discussed the intricacies of Janet's book.

Amidst the intimate exchange, the pub's door swung open, ushering in the last remnants of the setting sun and a brisk autumn breeze. In the doorway stood a young messenger, his breath labored and his countenance marked by exhaustion. With a pointed finger, he sought out Samuel Baxter, the man he had been tasked to find.

With faltering steps, the messenger crossed the threshold and stumbled forward, his ragged breaths echoing in the pub's hushed air. His mission was clear: to deliver an urgent message that would disrupt the tranquility of their evening and set them on a new path, shrouded in mystery and intrigue.

He catches his breath and say "I have a message for you mister Baxter" leaning forward handing him a letter. Sam take the letter oping the waxed seal envelope after pull out a letter inside and begins reading

The letter reads

"Dearest Samuel,

I hope this letter finds you well, though I fear the words within may bring a chill to your heart. The Thulin estate, which we thought freed from the grasp of the supernatural, has once again fallen under the shadow of malevolent forces. A darkness looms, and I can no longer ignore the cries for help from those who reside there.

Janet, Negril, and yourself are the only individuals I trust to uncover the truth and put an end to this cursed cycle. Return to the Thulin estate with all haste. The fate of its inhabitants, as well as the very balance of the supernatural world, may depend on your efforts.

Meet me at the estate, and I shall provide you with all the details. Time is of the essence, my friend.

Yours in urgency, Stefan Johansson"

As Samuel finished reading the urgent message, a heavy silence fell over the table at The Dancing Goat. The gravity of the situation weighed heavily on their shoulders, and the mysteries that had once been thought resolved now beckoned them back to the Thulin estate. Their journey into the unknown had begun anew.

As the night settled over the town, Samuel Baxter, Janet Auguste, and Negril Lonburg retreated to their respective accommodations, knowing that they would reconvene at The Dancing Goat and catch the morning train to Glasgow. Each of them had a sense of purpose, a mission that beckoned them back to the enigmatic Thulin estate.

Within their lodgings, they embarked on a night of research, poring over dusty tomes, documents, and manuscripts, seeking any information that might shed light on the dark history of the estate. The faint glow of lamplight bathed their faces in a warm, amber hue as they delved into the secrets hidden within the pages.

However, as the hours passed and the clock's hands crept toward midnight, Janet Auguste found herself drifting into an involuntary trance. The weight of the curse that had plagued her for so long began to bear down on her weary shoulders.

The Scene:

Janet sat at a small writing desk in her dimly lit room, surrounded by books and papers. Her eyes, already heavy with fatigue, grew distant as if she were staring into the abyss of another world. The pen in her hand hovered above a blank sheet of parchment, seemingly guided by an unseen force.

As the minutes ticked by, her hand began to move, tracing intricate patterns and symbols on the paper. Words flowed from her, not written by her conscious mind, but dictated by the curse that bound her. The room seemed to hum with an otherworldly energy as the ink spilled onto the parchment.

The words she wrote were not her own but rather a dark narrative, a tale of the Thulin estate, its haunted history, and the malevolent forces that lurked within. Janet's trance-like state allowed her to tap into the depths of her cursed knowledge, revealing secrets that had long been concealed.

Her friends, unaware of the supernatural struggle occurring within Janet's room, continued their research in their own quarters, each one determined to uncover the truth that awaited them at the Thulin estate.


Janet's writing continued into the night, driven by the curse that bound her to a destiny of both knowledge and torment. As her hand moved across the parchment, the curse's dark influence cast a long shadow over her, a shadow that would guide their actions in the days to come.











As Samuel Baxter settled into the comfort of his private compartment aboard the train from London to Glasgow, he had no inkling that this seemingly peaceful journey would soon turn into a life-or-death struggle.

The rhythmic clattering of the wheels and the gentle sway of the train had lulled Samuel into a sense of tranquility. He was absorbed in his thoughts, reviewing case notes and sipping on a cup of steaming tea, when suddenly, the door to his compartment was flung open with a violent burst.

Intrusion filled the small space as a menacing figure, clad in shadow and armed with a gleaming knife, lunged toward Samuel with deadly intent. Instinct and training took over, and Samuel swiftly reached for his concealed revolver, which rested within arm's reach.

With a well-practiced motion, Samuel drew his weapon, the metallic click of the hammer being cocked echoing in the confined space. He had no time for hesitation as the bounty hunter's blade came perilously close to him. In the blink of an eye, Samuel squeezed the trigger, and a single shot rang out, drowned by the cacophonous sounds of the train's whistle and the clatter of the wheels on the tracks.

The bounty hunter, a would-be assailant, fell lifeless to the compartment floor, their sinister mission thwarted. Blood stained the plush upholstery, a testament to the lethal encounter.

Samuel, his heart pounding with adrenaline, quickly assessed the situation. There were no witnesses, and the clamor of the train covered the telltale gunshot. He knew that disposing of the body was the only way to avoid scrutiny from the authorities, who would surely investigate the incident.

With steely resolve, Samuel dragged the lifeless form into the narrow corridor, where the cloak of night and the thundering train masked his actions. With a mighty effort, he heaved the body out into the inky darkness, where it vanished into the oblivion of the passing landscape.

Back in his compartment, Samuel took a deep breath, the weight of the life he had just taken settling heavily upon him. He knew that the dangers he faced in his pursuit of truth and justice could be as treacherous as the criminals he sought to apprehend. The peaceful train ride had transformed into a chilling reminder of the perils that lurked in the shadows of his 19th-century world.




Janet August

In the privacy of her compartment aboard the train, Janet August descended into a deep trance, a place where the boundaries between reality and the supernatural blurred. Her connection to the otherworldly forces that had cursed her to write her dark tome in her own blood was undeniable, and it was during these trances that the true nature of her eerie pact would reveal itself.

As her consciousness slipped away, Janet's hand, guided by a force beyond her comprehension, gripped the slender silver quill. With a deliberate, almost ethereal grace, she began to write on the vellum pages before her, using her own blood as ink. The crimson prose flowed effortlessly, a dark tapestry of words that wove together tales of mystery, enchantment, and dread.

In the midst of her trance, the world around her dissolved, replaced by a vivid vision of the Thulin estate in the Scottish countryside. The mansion stood as a grand but imposing presence, its weathered stones and ivy-covered walls holding centuries of secrets. Moonlight bathed the scene in a spectral glow, casting eerie shadows across the sprawling grounds.

Janet's vision carried her through the imposing gates and into the estate's sprawling gardens. The air was thick with a sense of foreboding, and the trees whispered ancient secrets as she moved deeper into the estate's heart.

In the distance, she saw figures cloaked in darkness, their faces hidden beneath hooded shrouds. They gathered around a flickering bonfire, and their chants carried on the night wind, mingling with the distant cries of unseen creatures. Janet's heart quickened as she realized that she was witnessing a gathering of practitioners of the occult, conducting rituals that defied the boundaries of the natural world.

Within this vision, Janet felt a profound connection to the Thulin estate, as though its very essence resonated with her own eerie pact. It was as if the mansion itself held a key to the mysteries that she was compelled to unravel in her dark tome.

As her trance began to wane, Janet knew that this vision was a glimpse into the supernatural forces that had ensnared her. The Thulin estate in the Scottish countryside would become a recurring theme in her writings, a place of enigmatic power and darkness that beckoned her to uncover its secrets, even as it remained an elusive and haunting presence in her life.




Negril Lonburg sat comfortably on a plush barstool in the train's lounge car, swirling a glass of fine Scotch as he engaged in conversation with a man of Scottish descent. The rhythmic clatter of the wheels on the tracks created a soothing backdrop to their exchange, and the dimly lit lounge exuded an air of camaraderie and shared stories.

The man from Scotland leaned in, his eyes gleaming with a hint of intrigue as he began to recount a chilling tale. "Aye," he said in a rich, brogue, "my dear old mum used to tell me a tale from her own youth, a tale that sent shivers down my spine every time she spoke of it."

Negril leaned forward, his curiosity piqued, and gestured for the man to continue.

The storyteller's gaze wandered for a moment, as if he could see the past unfolding before his eyes. "It was about a young servant girl, it was," he began. "She worked at the Thulin Estate in the Scottish countryside, a place that was both enchanting and eerie. The estate was known for its storied history, and whispers of malevolent spirits that haunted its halls were common."

Negril's eyes narrowed slightly, his interest deepening as he took a sip of his Scotch.

The man continued, his voice filled with a blend of fascination and trepidation. "This lass, the servant girl, was a quiet thing, always with an air of unease about her. As the story goes, one fateful night, she became possessed by a malevolent spirit, a force beyond her control. The darkness that overcame her led her to commit a heinous act—an act so gruesome and dreadful that it sent shockwaves through the entire estate."

Negril couldn't help but be drawn into the tale, the atmosphere of the lounge car seeming to fade away as he listened intently.

The storyteller concluded, "The poor servant girl, under the sinister influence of the malevolent spirit, is said to have killed her own family and anyone who crossed her path that cursed night. The Thulin Estate was forever marked by that tragic event, its halls forever echoing with the horrors of that night."

As the story hung in the air like an unspoken specter, Negril Lonburg contemplated the eerie connection between the Thulin Estate and the malevolent spirits that seemed to haunt both the estate and his own family's dark history. He took another sip of his Scotch, the warmth of the liquid offering some solace against the haunting tale he had just heard.

 





The Glasgow Railroad station was a bustling hub of activity, with steam locomotives churning and passengers bustling as the train came to a hissing stop. Nigel Lonburg, Samuel Baxter, and Janet August disembarked, stepping onto the crowded platform amidst the cloud of steam and clamor.

Characters:

  • Nigel Lonburg: Nigel, the rugged and enigmatic hunter, stood tall amidst the bustling crowd, his attire exuding a sense of wilderness and adventure.

  • Samuel Baxter: Samuel, the seasoned private detective, was a reassuring presence, recognized by his old friends from their university days. His demeanor was a blend of professionalism and the warmth of old companionship.

  • Janet August: Janet, the writer cursed to pen her dark tome in blood, carried an air of mystique that set her apart from the ordinary travelers. Her pale features and ink-stained fingers hinted at the unique nature of her journey.

  • Stefan Johansson: Stefan, the attorney of Victorian era Swedish descent, appeared as a scholar amidst the throng. His once-distinguished appearance was marred by weariness, his tired eyes reflecting the burdens of the mysteries that surrounded the Thulin estate. However, a glimmer of happiness and relief illuminated his expression as he saw Samuel, his old friend.

As Samuel and Stefan locked eyes, their expressions transformed into smiles of genuine warmth. They embraced like long-lost brothers, their camaraderie unbroken by the passage of time. "Stefan, my dear fellow," Samuel exclaimed, "It's been far too long since our university days."

Stefan's response was heartfelt, his fatigue momentarily forgotten as he grasped Samuel's hand firmly. "Indeed, Samuel," he replied, "The mysteries you've detailed in your letters have both intrigued and concerned me. I couldn't resist the call to join you."

Nigel, always vigilant, observed Stefan with a keen eye, recognizing the newcomer's exhaustion and the worry etched into his features. "Welcome aboard," Nigel acknowledged, "The challenges we face are not to be underestimated. Your expertise will be invaluable."

Janet, her presence shrouded in an aura of mystique, watched the reunion with an otherworldly gaze. She sensed that their journey was bound to be fraught with enigmas and dangers.

As the group moved through the bustling station, the camaraderie of old friends reunited was palpable. Conversations flowed, blending tales of university days with discussions about the mysteries that lay ahead. The clatter of luggage and the noise of the steam engines faded into the background as the quartet walked together, the shared purpose of uncovering the secrets surrounding the Thulin estate strengthening their bonds.

Their destination, the waiting Stagecoach, lay ahead. The mysteries surrounding the Thulin estate loomed larger than ever, but in the presence of old friends and new allies, they embarked on this journey with a sense of unity and determination, ready to confront the unknown together.






As the Stagecoach rattled along the winding road from the Glasgow Railroad to the mysterious Thulin estate on the outskirts of the city, the atmosphere inside the carriage was tense and filled with anticipation. Stefan Johansson, the attorney with weariness etched into his features, took the opportunity to share the disconcerting events that had been unfolding at the estate with his old friend, Samuel Baxter.

Characters:

  • Stefan Johansson: Stefan, the attorney of Victorian-era Swedish descent, sat opposite Samuel. His eyes, though weary, held a glimmer of concern and determination as he began to recount the unsettling occurrences.

  • Samuel Baxter: Samuel, the seasoned private detective, listened attentively to Stefan, his analytical mind already at work, piecing together the mysteries surrounding the Thulin estate.

  • Nigel Lonburg: Nigel, the rugged hunter, sat nearby, his keen instincts attuned to the conversation, ready to lend his insights to the investigation.

  • Janet August: Janet, the writer cursed to pen her dark tome in blood, sat beside Nigel, her ethereal presence adding an air of enigma to the discussion.

As the Stagecoach rumbled on, the landscape outside transitioned from the bustling city to the serene countryside, setting the stage for Stefan's grim account.

Stefan Johansson: (Voice filled with concern) "Samuel, my friend, things at the Thulin estate have taken a dark turn. It all began with the disappearance of a young girl The house servient . She vanished without a trace, and for weeks, her whereabouts remained a mystery."

Samuel Baxter: (Nodding) "And then, she returned?"

Stefan Johansson: (Continuing) "Yes, that's the perplexing part. The girl reappeared one morning, disoriented and with no memory of what had transpired during her absence. She couldn't recall where she had been or how she had returned."

Nigel Lonburg: (Interjecting) "Strange indeed. And you said there were other anomalies?"

Stefan Johansson: (Confirming) "Indeed, Nigel. The cattle on the estate have been falling sick without any apparent cause. Their health is deteriorating rapidly, and it's having a significant impact on the estate's livelihood."And there's more. Objects have been moving on their own within the house. Strange noises, doors opening and closing, as if unseen forces are at play.""

The Stagecoach continued its journey, the countryside rolling by in eerie silence. Inside the carriage, the weight of the mysteries surrounding the Thulin estate hung heavy in the air. Samuel, Stefan, Nigel, and Janet shared a sense of foreboding, a collective understanding that they were venturing into a world of the unexplained, where the darkness of the unknown awaited them.

As they approached the Thulin estate, the anticipation grew, for they knew that their arrival marked the beginning of a journey into the heart of these enigmas, a journey that would test their intellect, courage, and the strength of their bonds.


Upon hearing Stefan Johansson's account of the unsettling events at the Thulin estate, Janet August, the writer cursed to pen her dark tome in blood, reacted with a mixture of intrigue and concern. Her ethereal presence and unique connection to the supernatural made her particularly sensitive to such mysteries.

Janet's reaction was as follows:

Janet August: (Softly, with an air of solemnity) "These occurrences... they resonate with the inexplicable. Objects moving on their own, unexplained noises, and the memory loss of the young girl. It hints at something beyond the ordinary, something that dwells in the shadows of the estate."

Her voice carried an undertone of both curiosity and unease, reflecting her dual nature as someone who was both drawn to and wary of the mystical and the unknown. As they continued their journey toward the Thulin estate, Janet couldn't shake the feeling that they were stepping into a world where the boundaries between the mundane and the supernatural were blurred, and it filled her with a sense of both anticipation and trepidation.


As the Stagecoach approached the Thulin estate on a bright midday, the imposing gate came into view, marking the threshold to a world of mystery and intrigue. The estate itself loomed in the distance, its architecture bearing the grandeur of a bygone era.

The Gate:

  • Size and Structure: The gate was a formidable structure, tall and wrought from wrought iron, its ornate design showcasing the craftsmanship of a bygone era. It featured intricate scrollwork and decorative elements, which, though aged, retained an air of elegance.

  • Gothic Flair: The gate's design bore a hint of Gothic influence, with arches and pointed finials that reached skyward. Vines and ivy clung to the ironwork, weaving a natural tapestry that added to the estate's enigmatic allure.

The Thulin Estate:

  • Architectural Grandeur: Beyond the gate, the Thulin estate sprawled across an expansive landscape. It was an imposing mansion, constructed of weathered stone, its facade adorned with ornate detailing and tall, arched windows. The mansion's size and opulence spoke of a bygone era of wealth and privilege.

  • Surrounding Landscape: The estate was set against a backdrop of rolling hills and dense woodlands, creating a sense of isolation and seclusion. The manicured gardens, though now showing signs of neglect, hinted at their former splendor with overgrown roses and statues lost to time.

  • Mysterious Aura: The mansion's appearance held a mysterious aura. Weathered and aged, it seemed to bear the weight of secrets and enigmas, with ivy creeping up its walls and the faint echoes of forgotten laughter and footsteps.

  • Windows and Shadows: Tall windows, some boarded up, cast long shadows across the facade. These windows, once the eyes of the estate, now held their secrets behind closed shutters, giving the impression that the mansion itself was guarding its mysteries.

As the Stagecoach came to a halt before the imposing gate, the group of investigators couldn't help but feel a sense of trepidation and fascination. They had arrived at the Thulin estate, a place where the echoes of history intertwined with the enigmas of the present, and where the line between the ordinary and the supernatural blurred. Their journey into the heart of these mysteries was about to begin, and the Thulin estate stood as both a fortress and a repository of the unknown, beckoning them to explore its secrets.


 


With the Thulin estate's imposing gate behind them, the group of investigators wasted no time in beginning their search for clues amidst the mysteries that shrouded the estate. Samuel Baxter, the seasoned private detective, sat down with the young girl who had gone missing and miraculously returned, her memory marred by a haunting experience.

Characters:

  • Samuel Baxter: Samuel, known for his sharp investigative skills, offered a reassuring presence to the young girl as he listened to her account.

  • The Young Girl: The girl sat with a mixture of fear and curiosity, her eyes wide and filled with uncertainty, her memory a foggy maze of inexplicable events.

As Samuel engaged in conversation with the girl, her voice quivered as she recounted her fragmented memories:

The Young Girl: (In a hushed voice) "I... I remember the music, sir. It was haunting, like nothing I've ever heard before. A melody that seemed to beckon me. It drew me to the garden, I think. And the moon... the moon was full that night, casting an eerie glow over everything."

Her words hung in the air, the silence punctuated by the distant rustling of leaves and the creaking of old branches. The girl's recollection was troubling, for it hinted at something otherworldly, a lure that had led her into the darkness of the estate's garden.

Samuel Baxter: (Concerned) "Thank you for sharing, my dear. We'll do everything we can to uncover the truth behind what happened to you that night."

As Samuel continued his conversation with the girl, the rest of the group explored the estate's garden, searching for any traces of the mysterious music or other clues that might shed light on the enigma that surrounded the Thulin estate. The full moon hung in the sky above, a silent witness to the secrets that lay hidden in the shadows of the mansion and its gardens.


As Janet searched the study within the Thulin estate, her ethereal presence guided her to an ancient tome tucked away on a dusty bookshelf. The book's weathered cover bore mysterious symbols and intricate illustrations, hinting at its arcane nature. She carefully retrieved it, and as she opened the book, a brittle scrap of paper fell from between its pages. It was a ritual for summoning and binding a Mare.

The ritual, written in faded ink on aged parchment, contained cryptic incantations and symbols. It outlined a process for invoking the Mare and then binding its malevolent influence. The discovery sent a shiver down Janet's spine, for it hinted at the possibility that the enigmatic events surrounding the Thulin estate were connected to attempts at harnessing or controlling these supernatural entities.

Janet August: (Whispering to herself) "This is... unsettling. It appears someone here sought to summon and control the Mare, a perilous undertaking."

Janet carefully examined the ritual, her ink-stained fingers tracing the symbols and words. She realized that if they were to uncover the truth behind the estate's mysteries, they would need to delve deeper into the dark secrets concealed within its walls.

With the ritual in her possession, Janet rejoined the group, sharing her discovery and the potential implications it held for their investigation. Together, they would need to decipher the ritual's intent and unravel the threads connecting it to the events that had unfolded at the Thulin estate. The journey into the unknown had taken a new, more ominous turn, and they were determined to confront whatever forces lurked in the shadows.


Intrigued by the enigmatic occurrences at the Thulin estate, Nigel Lonburg, the seasoned hunter, decided to investigate the source of the strange lights emanating from a tool shed in the garden. Armed with his curiosity and a sense of caution, Nigel made his way toward the shed, carefully pushing open the creaking door.

Inside, the shed was dimly lit by an eerie, flickering glow. Nigel's sharp eyes quickly discerned the source of the mysterious lights. Before him stood an array of ancient, rusted lanterns and candles, their flames dancing with a spectral intensity. It was as though the flames themselves held secrets of a forgotten age.

Amidst the flickering light, Nigel noticed an assortment of peculiar objects that hinted at arcane practices:

  1. Books and Scrolls: There were old, weathered books and scrolls, their pages filled with cryptic symbols and incantations. These texts appeared to be related to summoning and controlling supernatural entities.

  2. Herbs and Ingredients: Jars and vials containing dried herbs, roots, and various ingredients were scattered about. Some of these items were known for their use in rituals and potions.

  3. Symbols and Sigils: The walls of the shed were adorned with intricate symbols and sigils, drawn with precision and care. These markings seemed to be part of a ritualistic pattern.

  4. Unusual Tools: Unfamiliar tools, including knives, chalices, and candles of varying colors, were arranged in a manner suggesting their use in arcane ceremonies.

As Nigel carefully examined the shed's contents, it became evident that this place had been used for rituals of a mystical nature, possibly connected to the Mare and other supernatural entities. The shed held clues to the estate's dark past and hinted at the depths to which someone had delved into the world of the occult.

Nigel realized that these findings were significant in unraveling the mysteries surrounding the Thulin estate. He carefully documented his discoveries and, with a sense of determination, returned to the group to share what he had found, knowing that these revelations would bring them one step closer to uncovering the truth behind the estate's enigmas.



 As the group continued their investigation within the Thulin estate, they uncovered a series of clues and unsettling details that shed light on the whereabouts of the Mare and the identity of the one who had summoned itI solde Thulin . Each discovery deepened the mystery and revealed a dark narrative.

1. Correspondence and Diaries:

  • Among the estate's belongings, they found a collection of old letters, diaries, and journals. These writings hinted at the presence of a previous owner, a scholar with a fascination for the occult. References to the Mare and other supernatural entities were scattered throughout the pages, hinting at a growing obsession.

2. Hidden Chambers:

  • As they explored the mansion further, the group uncovered hidden chambers and secret passages within the estate. These concealed spaces bore signs of ritualistic activity, with markings on the walls and floors that suggested summoning and binding ceremonies.

3. Artifacts and Charms:

  • Within these hidden chambers, they found a cache of arcane artifacts and protective charms. These items indicated that someone within the household had been actively practicing rituals to summon and bind the Mare, possibly with the intent of harnessing its powers.

4. Personal Effects:

  • The group discovered the personal effects of the previous owner, including a portrait and a locket containing a lock of hair. These items held sentimental value, suggesting a deep connection between the owner and the supernatural entities they had attempted to control.

5. Mysterious Disappearance:

  • Clues within the diaries and letters alluded to a tragic fate that befell the scholar who had summoned the Mare. It appeared that their experiments had gone awry, leading to their sudden disappearance and an ominous silence in their written records.

As the investigators pieced together these clues, they began to form a chilling narrative: The previous owner of the Thulin estate had delved into the forbidden world of the occult, summoning the Mare and other supernatural entities in a quest for power and knowledge. However, their experiments had led to catastrophic consequences, and they had vanished under mysterious circumstances, leaving behind a legacy of malevolent forces that continued to haunt the estate.

The group's mission to uncover the truth behind the Thulin estate's mysteries had taken a more sinister turn. Armed with these discoveries, they were determined to confront the Mare and the consequences of the previous owner's actions, hoping to put an end to the malevolent influence that had plagued the estate for far too long.






 The investigators, armed with the knowledge from one of the journals, set out to locate the Mare bound within an old well on the Thulin estate. As they arrived at the well, the eerie atmosphere of the night was palpable.

The Well:

  • The well stood as a weathered stone structure, its stones worn and aged by time. Moss and ivy crept up its sides, giving it an aura of ancient mystery.
  • The moon hung full and luminous in the midnight sky, casting an eerie, silver glow over the estate. Its light illuminated the well, creating ghostly reflections on the water below.

Spooky Atmosphere:

  • A hushed stillness enveloped the area, broken only by the occasional rustling of leaves and the distant cries of nocturnal creatures.
  • Shadows danced and played tricks on the investigators' eyes, as if the very night itself held secrets.

With ropes they had found in the tool shed, the investigators carefully descended into the well, the damp stone walls echoing their footsteps as they descended deeper into the darkness. At the bottom, they found themselves in a dimly lit chamber, the water below glistening like a pool of liquid silver.




The Conversation with the Mare: In the eerie quiet of the chamber, they initiated a conversation with the Mare, whose presence seemed to materialize from the depths. A faint, ethereal figure began to coalesce before them.

  • The Mare appeared apprehensive, its form shimmering in the moonlight. It seemed to fixate on Janet, its reaction suggesting an uncanny connection between them.
  • As the investigators questioned the Mare and listened to its story, they sensed its unease and fear, and it became apparent that it had been bound against its will, trapped in the well by malevolent forces from the past.
  • After a tense exchange, the Mare, spooked by Janet's presence, agreed to leave in peace if they would free it from its confinement. It seemed desperate to escape the well and the torment it had endured for so long.

With a solemn understanding, the investigators began to unravel the magic that bound the Mare, working together to release it from its centuries-old prison. As the last of the enchantments faded, the Mare's form gradually dissipated, and with a final, haunting whisper, it was gone.

The moon, now a symbol of both mystery and resolution, watched over them as they ascended from the well, their task complete. The Thulin estate would forever bear the memory of their encounter with the Mare, a chapter of supernatural history that had come to a close.
