Roland wanders and meets a group of travelers who encourage him to continue his art. He stumbles upon an ancient temple and is drawn to a cursed idol, which drives him to create a new masterpiece at the cost of a sacrificed life. Consumed by guilt, Roland isolates himself in the temple until he hears whispers leading him to another time and place. In this new world, he enjoys wealth and privilege but is haunted by his past.

As he works, the nightmares of a forbidden idol that once plagued him begin to fade. When the sculpture is complete, the woman is moved to tears, grateful for the masterpiece that immortalizes her. Roland feels a sense of satisfaction and redemption, realizing the true purpose of art. However, temptation returns when a hooded man asks him to create another forbidden idol. Roland succumbs to the temptation, only to discover that the statue curses him, turning him to stone. He remains trapped until a group of travelers breaks the curse, freeing him. Roland continues to use his art to help others, but the curse still lingers, tempting him with darkness.
