For once I awoke and felt his presence. And once I awoke and saw his form. Once again I awoke and heard his voice, and looked into his eyes. I cannot sleep without fear of what I might next awake to experience. I cannot ever wake. Goodbye. | „ |

Background
The Rake is an unknown cryptid creature dwelling with unknown origins of where it came from or little to no information about it. It is described to look like a "naked man" or a "large hairless dog of some sort" with a body position that seems unnatural.
It is known to induce an effect similar to a banshee; whoever's name it says is prone to grievous bodily harm, death, or other tragic events.
