Infernal Awakening

Roberto planned the perfect anniversary trip-an escape into the serene beauty of the Andes, far from the chaos of city life. But when the bus grinds to a halt on a lonely dirt track and a village shrouded in silence comes into view, his dreams of romance with Linda begin to fracture. The people of Huayna Picchu don't smile. They watch. Their weathered faces and shadowed eyes whisper of old secrets, of things buried deep in the earth and never meant to be unearthed.
And when a mysterious old woman steps from the mist, offering a pendant carved from obsidian and etched with runes that seem to move, Roberto ignores the dread crawling up his spine. Curiosity wins. He takes the gift-and seals his fate. The instant the pendant touches his skin, agony erupts. Bones twist, flesh splits, and Roberto screams as his humanity burns away, replaced by something monstrous, something infernal.
When the torment ends, the world he knew is gone. In its place sprawls a nightmarish realm of fire and shadow, a hellscape alive with grotesque creatures and rivers of molten rock. Here, the screams of the damned echo like a hymn of despair, and survival is a cruel game played by entities older than time. Stripped of everything but rage and the faint flicker of a soul on the edge of extinction, Roberto must navigate a labyrinth of horrors where every choice exacts a price.
But his torment is no accident. It's a trial. A punishment. A revelation. The old woman watches from the shadows, her motives as cold and inscrutable as the obsidian pendant that cursed him. In this infernal world, Roberto will uncover truths he cannot escape: that hell is not merely a place but a reflection of the sins he tried to bury. To reclaim his soul-and the love he betrayed-he must confront the darkest parts of himself and make an unthinkable sacrifice.
The creatures stalking him across the scorching plains are not the true enemy. It's the man he used to be. Infernal Awakening is a relentless plunge into dark fantasy and psychological horror-a tale of transformation, temptation, and the terrible price of ambition.
