✦ Synopsis

Jane, a 19-year-old writer, struggles to recount her infamous childhood after her cult was discovered beneath a demolished building. Isolated from the rest of society, Jane undertakes the grueling task of remembering her underground world for the sake of better understanding herself. Trapped within a stone, windowless basement hiding away a congregation in the midst of a power struggle between two polar extremes, she clings to the one thing that makes her feel understood: a priest, or Superiorii, who, for some inexplicable reason, has always treated her kindly.

As time passes, Jane grows haunted by her doubts and questions, fearing she may be a portal between the congregation and the demon world, or Fos Terata. She faces becoming a child bride, mothering a baby, and staring down death in all its forms -- all in the wake of her cracking psyche.
