What is buried in my ancestral grave is not a dead person, but something more terrifying than a dead person.
Every time I use my ancestral mantras to exorcise demons, I permanently lose a piece of my voice.
Now, I am pushing the last living person towards the Silent Demon, watching him be swallowed up by the silence.
This is the third time I have traded someone else's life for a few more minutes of my own life.
How many more times can I use the mantra before I become completely mute?
