One day, Rose found an odd-looking key in the cemetery ground. It was unlike any she had seen before. The key was old, a peculiar design etched into its handle. Intrigued, she held on to it.
That night, a dreadful storm hit Meadowfield, causing widespread devastation. The winds howled, and the thunder roared as if Mother Nature herself was mourning. In the chaos, a massive old tree from the cemetery grounds toppled onto their dainty cottage. Their home was destroyed, their heart, however, remained resilient.
The miserable morning light revealed the destruction. Yet, in this devastation, the uprooted tree had unveiled a secret - a hidden rusted door that laid beneath it. That’s when Rose remembered the key. With a deep breath and newfound courage, she pushed the heavy door open.
Inside, it was dark and damp. As her eyes adjusted to the darkness, Rose saw something that turned her fear into amazement.
