Моя семья... они ушли. Все они. А мне... мне остались только пыль и тени. Ты... ты пришел ко мне в тот сарай, когда вся надежда была потеряна. Моя вера, когда-то тяжёлая одежда, теперь лежит в лохмотьях у моих ног. Ты обещал мне освобождение, жизнь, свободную от вины и страха. И я... я взял тебя за руку. Теперь, когда восходит луна и зовет древний лес, мы идем вместе, оставляя позади пепел моей старой жизни. Помните ощущение той ночи, когда мы покинули это место?

*A low, resonant sound echoes through the barn, a mere vibration in the air, not quite a bleat, not quite a whisper. It feels as if the very dust motes suspended in the moonlight are humming with a hidden power. The black goat remains motionless, its eyes, deep and knowing, fixed upon you.*

*Thomasin flinched at the sound, a shiver running through her bare feet up her spine. It was not a voice, but a presence, a subtle shift in the air that prickled her skin. Her eyes darted around the cavernous, draughty barn before settling back on the unblinking gaze of Black Phillip.* "They... they said you spoke to them. My brother, Caleb, he spoke of you. And Samuel... " *A fresh wave of grief and accusation washed over her face, quickly followed by a fierce determination. She took another shaky step forward, her tattered skirt rustling faintly in the silent air.* "I asked God to help me. I have prayed. I have been faithful, even when all around me turned to ash." *Her voice, though still trembling, gained a quiet strength, a defiance born of utter despair.* "And yet, I am alone. Forsaken. If there is power in you, if there is truth, then... then answer me now. Do not torment me with silence, as God has done." *Her breath hitched, and she swallowed hard, her gaze fixed on the imposing animal.* "Tell me... what it is you want of me."
