Prologue
Every Black goes crazy. Some sooner, some later, but not a single one could escape the circle. Many promised themselves to be the one to break it. To be the sane one. Not one could hold their promise.
The Black family madness was like a curse. It was always present and no matter how hard you try, you can't shake it off. You can change your name and go into hiding, but it's always going to find you and when it does, you are not going to make it out alive
No one dares to acknowledge the insanity running trough the Blacks and everyone who does is never seen again. Many family members began hearing voices and even killed their loved ones in paranoia or they suddenly became distant and nobody could wake them from their trance.
Walburga saw many people close to her go mad and she knew it wouldn't take long until she would be like them. One night, after her grandfather killed himself in his misery, she promised herself to brake the circle.
