The heavy oak doors of the Willow Creek Chapel did not so much open as they surrendered. With a groan of rusted hinges that echoed like a dying breath, they yielded, spilling the gray light of a late autumn afternoon into a space that had forgotten the sun.
Elias Thorne stood on the threshold, his boots crunching not on wood or stone, but on the accumulated debris of a decade’s worth of neglect. Dust motes danced in the shafts of light, thick and agitated, as if disturbed by an intruder. The air inside was heavy, held captive by the high, vaulted ceiling—a stagnant mixture of dry rot, damp earth, and the faint, ghostly scent of old hymnals and beeswax.
He didn’t move forward immediately. He stood still, letting the silence wrap around him. It was a thick, textured silence, the kind that didn’t just exist but pressed against his eardrums. It was the silence of a house where prayers had once flowed like water, only to be dammed up and left to evaporate.
