The situation bears a resemblance to Charlie's case, but with a crucial difference: these victims are all women, while Charlie is a man…
Could it be that the strange entity believed to be Susanna Mattise isn't constrained by gender? Or is there another, male counterpart to the creature?
The latter seems more probable, given that all three victims in Aunett were female and no males had been targeted.
Yes, there are distinctions between the three women and Charlie. None of them had a partner, either openly or secretly, and Charlie had become Madame Alice's lover not long after invoking Susanna Mattise. If that hadn't happened, would he have met the same fate as the three victims, drained of life by overindulgence?
Had Madame Alice been a sacrificial substitute? Or had that been merely the beginning?
Lumian pieced together a theory based on the information provided by the man with the painted face.
