Born into the silent world of tombstones and shadows, Silas, the gravedigger's son, exists as a solitary figure amidst the departed. His life, a tapestry of collected oddities – buttons whispering forgotten stories, bones echoing lives lived, taxidermy frozen in eternal stillness, and remnants of final farewells – is a reflection of his own yearning for connection. But within this curated collection of the discarded, a singular discovery emerges, an artifact pulsating with an energy that promises to shatter the delicate balance of Silas's existence. As Silas delves deeper into the mysteries of his newfound treasure, the graveyard's veil between worlds thins, blurring the lines between life and death, sanity and madness. He finds himself ensnared in a macabre dance with forces beyond his comprehension, where the price of knowledge is steep, and the cost of loneliness may be his very soul. Will Silas unearth the truth, or become another lost soul claimed by the graveyard's insatiable hunger?
