When Samantha, a gentle soul burdened by a strange and enigmatic past, vanished without a trace, the world assumed the worst—that she had been abducted, possibly even killed. Yet, as her best friend Kathleen set out to uncover the truth, she and her companions unearthed far more than they had anticipated. What lay beneath Samantha's disappearance was a labyrinth of secrets tied to forces beyond the natural world, forces that had quietly shaped her life for years.

As Kathleen's investigation deepened, she discovered a hidden network of individuals connected to Samantha’s past, people who seemed to know more about her than even she did. But darker revelations soon surfaced—Samantha’s current circle of friends, trusted and familiar, were not what they appeared. They had long been watching her, waiting for the moment she would unlock a doorway into realms no human was meant to access.

Before Kathleen and her team could traverse the realms in their quest to rescue her, Samantha inexplicably reappeared—or did she?

Where are you, Samantha?

Kim’s voice cut through the swirling chaos like a blade, her frustration as sharp as the winds buffeting the desolate landscape. 


 "So, what now?!" she hissed, spinning on her heels to glare at Victor. Her expression was twisted in disdain, her eyes aflame with a frustration she no longer cared to mask. "They get to summon that woman back while we’re left with nothing? How pathetic is that? How pathetic are we?" 


 Victor hesitated, her words striking deeper than he expected. The accusation hung in the air, echoing with a truth he couldn’t dismiss. The notion of summoning her back hadn’t crossed his mind, but now it clung to his thoughts like a parasite. 


 What if Kim was right? What if they truly had achieved the impossible?
