[Cthulhu + 19th century background + suspense + no system, no golden fingers + no heroine + too many words in a single chapter] Some things really cease to exist once they are forgotten. This is a story about forgetting and remembering.
Isaac could see a black slime that would consume a person's existence, erasing all memories and traces, leaving only empty oblivion. He was the only witness and was forced to watch everyone around him being devoured and completely disappeared from his memory. Professor Abernathy, who adopted him, was the eleventh. Before disappearing, the professor left him a silver key and a letter directing him to Messiah University. There, he became a member of the "Witnesses" - a secretive group dedicated to remembering those devoured by Mingqian. Isaac discovered that the closer he got to the answer, the more he felt the powerlessness and despair of human beings facing the unknown supreme being.
