"Home in the valley, home in the city

Home isn't pretty, ain't no home for me

Home in the darkness, home on the highway

Home isn't my way, home I'll never be"

Tall grasses obscured the clearing from view. Huge trees casted dark shadows on the ground below. The sound of insects and the chirping of nocturnal avians joined in one cacophony of noise, singing without tune. Beyond that noise was a steady sound of collective voices singing together. It was a choir of madness and order as opposed to the sound of nature which was a choir of relaxation and disorder.

Those voices sings a hymn in a language that outdated time. Along with them sang a voice that sounded like thousands of dead screaming in pain. They sang in symphony as they invoke their own deity.

Men and women in black robes surrounded an open pit. Down below, a bound and gagged girl in white wedding dress can be seen, attempting to break free from her bonds. Helpless and powerless, all she could do was to squirm in hopes of getting free. Sweat covered every inch of her skin as it gradually hotter and the voices above increased in volume every second along with that inhuman oscillation.

"Vere, vere, nik kon noir incubus." They chanted repeatedly for hours that it slowly drove her mind into insanity. Like a parasite ramming its way through every veins of her brain, it slowly poisoned her to a trance of helplessness. She bit her gag hard as tears slowly flowed out of her eyes.

In the farthest row, two teenagers were singing with the rest but one dares to break the chant in order to engage his friend in a conversation.

"Hey, Nick." He called. "So, what's happening? Where's the chick Demon?"

"You're not chanting well, mate. You shouldn't have talked to me. I thought you wanna see six tits?"

In an instant, Nick's friend began chanting so furiously that his voice drown out the others as they continued chanting.
