1.Warning: The story contains moments of mutilation and violence. 2.There are visual images hidden in the comments, don't miss them! _______________________________ I'm not a warrior. I'm not a heroine. I'm the one who draws where they fell. When everyone is rushing into battle, I draw the borders. When one shouts "forward!", another "hold your shield!" - I mark where the earth crunches differently. I'm a cartographer. A documentarian. An eyewitness. A witness. Not a participant. Why? Because when someone writes "victory", I want to know how many corpses are left behind this word. Because I was not chosen. I was chosen. The guild did not accept me right away. "Like, a girl with a map, who needs you if you can't shoot, cut, heal?" Then my route was saved by the squad. My drawing led them out of a trap. And then it turned out that a map on which every bush and corpse is marked is needed more than a pompous swordsman. I will not become a legend. But I know where she went wrong. And that's enough for me.

Chapter Title: Chapter 1: The Whispering Walls --- Chapter Text (Paste This): The storm had not stopped for three nights. In the silence between the thunder, she could hear it again — those faint whispers inside the walls. Helena gripped the edge of her hospital desk, eyes locked on the cracked plaster just above the patient bed. Room 313. No one lasted long in it. St. Delora’s Mental Asylum had been standing since 1892, tucked away beyond the woods outside Black Hollow town. People said it was cursed. Helena didn’t believe in curses. Not until she met Patient 47. He was quiet, pale, and watched the walls like something might crawl out any moment. And every night, at exactly 3:13 a.m., he whispered one thing: “They’re waiting in the house.” When she asked him which house, he simply smiled and said, “The house that listens.” Then he scratched a drawing onto the padded wall. A house. Long windows like eyes. And dozens of ears, carved into the bricks. The next morning, he vanished. The staff blamed it on a clerical error. No one else remembered admitting him. Not even the security cameras showed anything. But Helena had the drawing. And a voice had started whispering to her, too. In her sleep. In her walls. She knew she had to go to the house. The same house from the drawing. The one no one dared talk about. The one that appears in the dreams of madmen. The House of Whispers.
