The Blame Game

On a fateful evening, under the cover of a moonless night, a gruesome crime took place inside the Eternal Hell Tower. A man was found dead, his lifeless body sprawled on the cold, creaking floorboards. The sinister aura of the mansion seemed to have claimed another victim.

But what sent shockwaves through the town was the discovery of a fragile, wide-eyed four-year-old girl, Lily, near the scene. She was trembling, her eyes filled with terror, her hands stained with her father's blood. The town was quick to accuse her of being the perpetrator, claiming she was a deranged child with a thirst for violence. It was an easy narrative to accept, given the mansion's dreadful reputation. However, the truth, as often is the case, was far more complex.
