"Different," she supposed. "In the dark... Another realm. There was a... Lure. I was pulled through. This body... It became my home, but it isn't mine."

"The ones who did this... Who summoned... They did not expect me. They had the minds of children, to try what they did," she observed with distaste. "And now I am trapped."
A slow shake of head.
"I remember... Little of the time before. But I know I am different. That the dark things in this world are tainted in ways I am not... That I have a purity of blackness they do not. That this body houses me - it does not become me."
