As the sun sets over Nileswaram, Inspector Rajan Menon receives a chilling radio call: the infamous serial killer Ripper Chandru—believed to have vanished after fourteen ritualistic murders—is spotted near the Karinthalam railway crossing. Haunted by the brutality of Chandru’s killings and the eerie calm that always followed them, Rajan races toward the location, memories of blood-soaked crime scenes clawing at his mind. Each murder was a message: a mechanic with his skull shattered in precise blows, a couple found eyeless in bed with a cryptic phrase scrawled in grease—*“They were dreaming too loud.”* No clues. No patterns. Just silence and dread. Now, as Rajan approaches the tracks, the air thickens with fear. He sees a figure in a brown shirt, walking slowly, something heavy glinting in his hand. It’s not just a man—it’s a myth, a ghost, a nightmare made flesh. And Rajan knows: this night will not end quietly

A divine principle by which the order of events has been inevitably predetermined. The proxies of the Palace were the Moirais as they were blessed with precognition, great mana talent, and high affinity with Fate. The Church of Arbor revere Conscience.
