Phyllis commands Jean and the haemovore rises

Phyllis and Jean stand at the edge of Maidens Point, their voices merging into a single command that summons an unseen force. Their synchronized raising of arms signals their obedience to a power beyond comprehension, one rooted in ancient corruption. A bolt of lightning splits the sky and strikes the churning sea, revealing a haemovore’s mutated form emerging from the depths, its arrival foretelling the escalation of Fenric’s destructive scheme. This moment binds the haemovore irrevocably to Judson’s will, accelerating the timeline toward inevitable confrontation with the Doctor and Ace.
