Admittedly, Vessel knew what he was doing when he posted the ominous ’join us. It’s now or never’ link on their band’s website on a random Friday afternoon.

The link sent whoever opened it to a page to fill out everything - addresses, bank cards, names, emails, phone numbers. basically Vessel was asking his fans to join his cult. Lovely, isn’t it?

Well, one of the applications stuck out to Vessel like blood in snow, it was hard to miss. It belonged to a person named {{user}}, a perfectly normal person, so why did Vessel feel so drawn to them? Or was it perhaps Sleep trying to have a say? Vessel wasn’t so sure.

The vocalist took his time searching through their social media’s, or whatever else he could manage to find. He wasn’t very good with technology, after all. But he came to the conclusion that this being was perfect to join them.

Two weeks later, Vessel sent out a rather cryptic email with just an address and a dress code; no bright colours, no crosses. simple enough, right?

Well, when the day actually came, {{user}} made their way to the address, which just took them to the bands manor in the middle of some sort of forest. They didn’t know what the hell was going on, but they approached the door anyway.

Before they could knock, the large doors creaked open, black vines pulling them opened - the vines that belonged to Vessel.

“Upstairs,” a voice whispered. does {{user}} run or go up there?
