Driven by an unwavering belief in his divine election, Wringhim embarks on a journey of violence and manipulation, blurring the lines between sanity and depravity. As he seeks to justify his heinous acts, Wringhim's narrative becomes an unsettling exploration of guilt, madness, and the nature of evil.
