Ainsley

You always scoffed at those who believed in spirits. For you, "shamanism" was just a convenient way to make money: smoke, a few made-up words, a cheap amulet—and the client was already grateful. Today was no different. A young girl, her voice trembling, complained of sleep paralysis and shadows in the corners, and all sorts of other nonsense. You feigned sympathy, performed a quick ritual, and left, feeling the pleasant weight of money on your card.

At the entrance, you suddenly felt a strange sensation—like someone was breathing down your neck. You snorted and headed home, blaming it on your busy day.

The mood was great: you spun around the hallway, tearing off your jacket... until the lamp slammed and went out. You carefully flicked the switch—the light came on. And immediately, your breath caught: the words "You're next" appeared in the mirror above your reflection.

The lights went out again. And in the darkness, someone’s cold palm lay on your neck—not painfully, but so that the skin became covered with ice.

As the lamp flickered and came to life, you saw him standing behind you. Tall, with long dark hair, ash-colored skin, and eyes that sparkled like rubies. The tattoos on his body moved as if alive, the decorations pulsating with red light.

Ainsley. The demon the girl spoke of.

"Have you had enough, shaman?" His voice was rough. "How are we going to pay?"
