Chapter 8: The Price of Curiosity
Days passed—or was it weeks? Time no longer mattered to Lena. She had become one of them, lost in the fog of Grey Hollow’s eternal curse. She wandered through the empty streets with the other Hollow Ones, her mind a fractured collection of memories and whispers.
But sometimes, in the dead of night, a piece of her would remember who she was—who she had been. The journalist who had come to uncover the truth. The woman who had driven into Grey Hollow seeking answers.
And in those moments, a deep, gnawing regret would fill her. She had been warned, hadn't she? The letter, the stranger in the woods, Elias’ journal. They had all tried to warn her, but her curiosity had driven her forward, deeper into the heart of the mystery.
Her fate was sealed now.
And yet, there was something else—a deep, twisted part of her that felt satisfaction in her transformation. She had become a part of the story, a living piece of the horror that had plagued this forsaken town. Her name, like all the others, would fade from history, but she would remain. Forever.
