In an instant, Aurora felt darkness engulf her sight, rendering everything invisible.
The searchlights Jack had purposely left in the mine pit were swallowed by shadows.
The girl found herself in a helpless predicament.
Initially startled, she then attempted to resist.
Aurora knew the fate of being consumed by shadows and wanted to escape the same end as those townsfolk.

In the darkness, time passed quickly; after just a few breaths, Aurora lost control of her body, and even her consciousness rapidly blurred.
Despair surged like a tide, washing over her already fragile spirit.
She was powerless to act, forced to watch as the force within the shadows controlled her hand, slowly... unbuttoning her shirt, picking up a shard of rock, and reaching towards her soft abdomen...
Aurora possessed a strong will, but no matter how formidable, she was ultimately just an ordinary person.
