Chapter 25
When I open the door I see a rather empty room with nothing but a fire place on one wall, a couch that look like it had been recently moved to face the door, and an incubus reading on said couch.
“Hey uncle” jack
“About damn time you got out of there” uncle
“I had to make it a little more interesting, so where is everyone else?” jack
“Their all dead asleep, it’s the middle of the night” uncle
“The guys that attacked us were your golem’s right?” jack
“Who else could get a hold of that poison? Char literally begged me to make some last night, just for you” uncle
Char, or rather charlotte, is my aunt’s first name.
“So how’d the experiment go, I heard you finished it the day this all happened” jack
“Oh, that’s right. I said I would tell you about it when I finished it.” Uncle
“All I know is that it had something to do with our neighbors, the guy with the wife and three kids” jack
“You know how incubi and succubi specialize in dream magic right?” uncle
“Yes, of course I know. I’ve had some experience with it myself.” Jack
“Well, I would send a dream to the man every night.” Uncle
“What type of dream?” jack
“One where he kills his wife and his oldest two kids only to be killed by his youngest.” Uncle
“So what happened?” jack
“Well every night I would make the people look slightly less human every night.” Uncle
“Interesting” jack
“Then the day the system came online he woke up and killed his family with a baseball that he was planning on giving to his son for his birthday, the same way I had him kill his family in the dream.” Uncle (if you get this reference you are the most amazing person in the entire world, and ghost will visit you in your dreams tonight)

“With the way you did that of course it would turn out that way, well I should probably get too bed” jack
“Oh come on, keep an old man company” uncle
“You still look to be in your late 20s early 30s” jack
“I’m 212 already, my wife is almost half my age” uncle
“Well aunty is 85 this year” jack
“Why don’t you tell me about your resent adventure, It sounded pretty exciting, especially in the bedroom” uncle
“What else would I expect to hear from an incubus” jack
At that he just smiles.
“Well, it’s not like I need sleep anyway.” Jack
And so I spend the night recounting my adventure, with uncle begging for more details about certain parts, and listening to uncle’s trip to their dungeon. It turns out that there was only one type creature in it, trolls, which are really irritating due to their insane regeneration. He ended up making a poison out of their blood and some magic to counter their regeneration. All in all it took about 8 hours for them to complete it.
“So I saw Johanna became a sprite” uncle
“Yeah, so” jack
“Theirs no way you didn’t have fun with that” uncle
Oh yeah, uncle is a closet pervert.

These seem to worsen when Lydia arrives, or so the other patients say. Lydia does not realize that her arrival has triggered something to awaken. It doesn't take long before the darkness begins to grow, as a mysterious force drives these mentally-challenged inhabitants to their knees...
