One fateful night, a young woman named Anya, whose family had suffered under Eldred's oppression, sought solace in the nearby forest. As she wandered through the dense undergrowth, she stumbled upon a hidden clearing. There, beneath a twisted willow tree, she found a group of swans gathered around a small pool of water.

As Anya approached, she felt an inexplicable pull toward them. Reaching out to caress one of the birds, she pricked her finger on its sharp beak. A drop of her blood spilled into the water, and an instant later, the swans transformed into horrifying creatures with glowing red eyes and razor-sharp talons.

Filled with terror, Anya stumbled backward and fled into the night. The swans pursued her relentlessly, their piercing screeches echoing through the forest. As she raced for her life, she realized that they were not simply birds but malevolent spirits from another realm.
