Summary
Every year, in the isolated hollow of Blackwood Creek, a girl of age is chosen to be the Patron’s Bride.
The chosen one must enter the sacred cavern to lie with the Patron, a mysterious entity the town has worshipped for generations. If she emerges alive, she becomes a revered Matriarch, and any child conceived from the union is said to be blessed with a life of fortune.
If she dies… well, the town simply waits for the next year’s Bride. The "blessing" of her sacrifice is then said to pass to her family.
