He hears faint music

"I'm a survivor - I'm not gonna give up! I'm not gonna stop, I'm gonna work harder!"

As Derek approached the front door, he could hear faint music coming from inside. As Derek opened the door to the house, he was greeted to an empty living room and a closed bathroom door. The music was coming from behind the bathroom door - Jade couldn't ever shower without listening to music and jamming and singing along, so it came to no surprise to Derek.

Derek threw his keys on the table and grabbed a soda before plopping into the couch and taking off his shoes.

"What a fucking dud of a day," Derek says quietly. No sewing kit, no desk and only one single book and it looks like it came from the dark ages.

After flicking through his phone for a bit while waiting for Jade to finish, Derek sees the book out of the corner of his eye. Derek's not a "book guy", but there was something particular about this book. It looked ancient and weathered. It also being translated intrigued Derek, knowing that not many English people have gotten to read it.

Still waiting, Derek picks up the hefty book in his hands, and cracks open the cover. Everything about the book feels fragile, yet everything has seemingly held up perfectly on the inside. As Derek started to inspect and look at the front first page, he realized something - the text was untranslated. Seeing this, he flipped further into the book and after thumbing past some extremely bizarre sketches, he saw the rest was translated - so why was the beginning untranslated? Flipping back to the beginning, he begun to try and sound out what was written:

"In angulis obscurissimis cupiditatis, ubi habitant umbræ et latebunt arcani, clavis jacet ad aperiendam veram naturam cupiditatum intimarum cordis tui. Complexus fructum vetitum, bestiam interiorem libera, et dede te primigeniis impulsibus qui nos omnes ligant. Nam in hoc mundo carnis et ossium, nullum maius gaudium est quam gustare dulcem nectarem transgressionis, sentire ictum culpæ commisceri cum voluptate peccati. Sinite susurros Bibliæ Diaboli ducere vos, o nefarii, et delectamini carnalitate nova existentia vestra."

As he horribly tried to make his way through this passage, he started to feel numb in his finger tips, and felt the room started spinning. He kept trying to re-steady himself, but he couldn't shake a sick feeling.
