Advertisement"Did I just die? Where am I?" Surgit was at a loss and couldn't understand what was going on . Was it a dream? Or was it reality? All he could remember were the fearful red eyes of the man who had buried his axe on his head . He walked towards the barriers to have a clearer idea on where he was . As he stood in front of it, his mind was struck with puzzlement . All he could see in front him was a sea of fog . What looked like rock pillars pierced the fog everywhere and looking down; it felt like it was a real floating island . What was this place? Why is he there? Was he still in Yharnam? Or is this afterlife?
He decided to walk towards the house; maybe he'd find someone to answer his questions . As he approached the house, He saw a woman lying down opposite a wall next to the front door . She didn't move at all . "A corpse!" thought Surgit . He approached it to look at it more carefully . "The only person to provide me with information about this place is a dead woman, great!" He thought sarcastically . The woman was in fact a doll, a real life replica of a human being . She looked like a sleeping beauty . It had ashen hair and wore an elegant crimson dress . Her open surcoat revealed half its bosom and the bodice was tightly laced with golden laces . He could see that the doll was made with great care and attention to detail . It looked almost like a sleeping woman, only her skin was pale and there seemed to be no veins in the body . Surgit stood up after inspecting the doll and looked at his left .
He saw a basin next to the back door of the wooden house . It was a small ivory fountain . The water in it looked black . No one had touched it in a long time . While he was approaching it to have a closer look, he saw movement in the water, as if it was boiling . From underneath it appeared a small white creature, with a mouth and tiny teeth for its face . Surgit jumped back, that nightmarish creature again . "Is this thing real? I must be hallucinating . It was just a dream . " The creature made a sound, as if it was a murmur, indistinct and faint . Surgit felt drawn towards it and he approached . The creature's only movement was to extend its hands towards him . It seemed like it couldn't leave the basin . It didn't talk, or at least Surgit didn't understand what it was mumbling . Although it didn't have eyes, it could feel Surgit and follow his movement . He tried talking to it to no avail . He extended his hand to touch it and he felt the cold tiny hands against his skin that sent shivers down his spine . The creature seemed harmless and at last it made a movement . It pointed with its hands towards the house, as if inviting him to go inside . As he reached the front door, a man's voice could be heard: "Come in" said the voice .
