The Infernal Crest: The Past Never Stays Dead.

by Emperor0331

Victor had never been afraid of the dark—until he started dreaming about what was waiting in it. Every night, it’s the same story. He wakes up with his heart hammering, remembering black armor and weapons he’s never held in real life. He’s hunting something monstrous, something that moves just past the reach of his eyes. And every morning, the details dissolve, leaving him with one sickening realization: his hands know how to kill, even if his mind doesn't remember learning. As Victor’s body begins acting on instincts he shouldn't have, he realizes his family hasn't just been keeping a secret—they were made to forget. But whatever put them to sleep is waking back up. And it knows they are finally starting to remember.
