ANCESTRAL PLANE

Outside the Suny Purchase College Student Center rests a graveyard that lies enslaved individuals that tended to the land that was once a plantation. One night, Fatima, witnesses the events that are the last straw for her and friends; she leaves an offering to the ancestors, in hopes of replenishing the energy that was taken from there.
