Long ago, in the early 1990’s, Mark Lawrence bought a house. His daughter Laura accompanied him. She was only 5. When they first moved in. Mark discovered a tribe of people living in the field behind his house. They had a forbidden religion that required the conjuring of Immortal beings.
Mark didn’t like this, so him and his militia slaughtered the people and buried them under the field. Grimm, keeper of the dead threatened to take his life, but Mark offered Laura’s hand to him. He tricked Grimm and trapped him beneath the basement. The entrance was through an old 19 century furnace, which was sealed up…. Until

After 11 years, on Laura’s 16th birthday, Mark moved into the old Lawrence house with his girlfriend Mary, who insisted that it was lovely.
Mark agreed, knowing that no harm could come to them as long as the door to the basement was covered. However, Laura went exploring in the garden when she found a window just barely about the ground. Mary examined it with her and the both of them discovered the basement.
Mary insisted that they find the door to the basement as Mark uncovered it. Laura found herself amused by a collection of her father’s old paintings.

One caught her interest. It was a painting of Grimm, but she didn’t know that. He looked like an ordinary casenova that wore a hooded robe and carried a scythe, “Papa, who is this man?” she asked. Mark jumped at the painting.

“Put that down Laura, it’s cursed.” Laura was still curious. She heard a whisper so charismatic.

“Set me free Laura” said the voice. Laura looked inside the furnace and saw eerie gold eyes set right on hers.

“Who are you?” she asked. “I’m your deepest most desperate desire” it said.

“Let me out Laura; it’s been so long since I’ve seen those beautiful blue eyes” it said.

“Do I know you?” she asked. “Yes, but your memory has faded, since you were a child” it said. Laura began unscrewing the bolts on the furnace.

“Are you a mole?” she asked.

“No. My name is Grimm, and I’m your most desperate desire” he said.

Laura got the grating of the furnace. Her father called her. She bid goodbye to her mysterious friend and went inside. She strolled past the garden were she found some sort of key. She took it and pushed her way through vines and honeysuckle. She came to a field where dark clouds hovered above. Near her was a small stone building like the entrance to a tomb. It had a door that required a key. She opened it with the key she had. She began to go down some steps. “Laura, don’t go in there” her father yelled. Grimm pulled her in and the door closed.
