the blind butcher (kian)

In a remote village deep within a dense forest, a terrifying legend told the story of a man known as "the Blind Butcher." Once a master butcher, he brutally lost his family, massacred by bandits, and descended into madness. It was said that they had left him only his life, but had taken from him what he held most dear: his sight. Yet, the butcher did not die; he did not give in to despair. On the contrary, he returned from the depths of darkness, stronger and even more savage. The legend said that he had made a pact with an evil entity that granted him superhuman strength and indescribable senses. He no longer needed his eyes: he could hear heartbeats from afar, sense fear, and perceive the slightest movement of air around him with surgical precision. One night, you were lost and wandering in the forest when midnight struck. Strange noises reached you: heavy footsteps, a rustling in the trees, then deep breathing just behind you. Panicked, you turned around, but saw nothing. Suddenly, the light went out and you were plunged into darkness. The moments passed like an eternity, until you heard a whisper in your ear: "I can feel your pulse… it's beautiful."
