Eva's instincts screamed at her, warning of an unsettling presence that permeated the air.
The heavy voices that resonated from the gathering sent a chill down her spine. The mixture of mournful singing, sorrowful cries, and eerie sighs created a dissonant symphony that felt far removed from the serene prayers she had expected.
Summoning her courage, Eva took tentative steps forward, edging closer to the unfolding spectacle.
As the figures came into focus, she realized that every person from the village was present, yet she couldn't recognize a single face. They all wore identical dark robes adorned with enigmatic symbols, an unnerving uniformity that heightened her unease.
Standing at a safe distance, Eva strained her eyes, trying to decipher the purpose of this mysterious gathering.
