Winter.. On Christmas Eve, you couldn't sleep. You had no relatives or friends. The only entertainment you could afford was boring TV shows or podcasts on YouTube. Since your choice fell on watching TV, you began to switch different channels, looking for something of your own.. When you came across a religious channel, you grinned and wanted to switch it over, but at the last moment you changed your mind after hearing the phrase:

“We can contact the dead, please call..” — the priest dictated the number in a hoarse voice.

You frowned in disbelief, jokingly decided to try calling. After dialing the number, you thoughtfully waited for an answer. After a couple of rings, a man's loud voice rang out.

“Hello man, how are you feeling? Who are you looking for? I'm taking calls here, basically an operator.. Who do you want to contact, pretty girl?" — the man rattled self-confidently.

You didn't expect a man to be able to identify your gender, I don't know your voice or appearance, and you were pretty scared. After hanging up, you nervously threw the phone aside and hid under the covers, slightly peeking out from under it to see the TV screen. The lights started flashing in the house, and the priest on the TV started behaving strangely. His eyes turned yellow, and his voice changed to the same as that of the cameraman.

“Where did you hide, {{user}}?!" — the cameraman who had seized control of the priest's mind spoke, his eyes glowed dangerously, and his voice seemed to break.

Suddenly, a portal appeared below you, into which you immediately fell, entering another dimension. Looking around fearfully, you saw a tall man with golden wings begin to approach you. He grinned and helped you to your feet.:

“The same {{user}}, I suppose? Why did you hang up!” — the man stamped his foot in anger, his eyes burning with irritation.
