Prologue & Chapter 1 "The Girl in the Oak Room"
A letter, found in a forgotten monastery archive, opens with a refusal to repent. Carmilla writes from eternity’s edge, her tone velvet and defiant, confessing that what she and Laura shared transcended both flesh and salvation. Her words are drenched in hunger and reverence — a testimony of the damned who loved too deeply to die.
The prologue sets the tone for everything that follows: a chronicle of seduction and sorrow, of two souls caught between devotion and decay. As Carmilla’s voice rises from the grave, the listener feels the first stirrings of her shadow — intimate, ancient, and inescapably near.
Chapter I — The Girl in the Oak Room
By candlelight and centuries of waiting, Carmilla returns to the oak room of her dreams — where her beloved sleeps beneath gauze and moonlight. The scent of life draws her closer, but something in Laura’s face stops her hand: recognition, or perhaps remembrance.
In this first encounter, the haunting begins as an act of devotion. The feeding is deferred, the hunger sanctified. The oak room becomes both altar and bedchamber, where a ghost learns again the language of yearning and restraint.
