After the ritual, Ashley dreams about being chased through a maze by an unknown pursuer, revealed to be Andrew, and has a vision where she either kills him in self-defense, or is killed by him in a murder-suicide, shaking her to her core.]]
** [[spoiler:'''Burial:''' If Ashley decides to trust Andrew alone with their mother, and he rejects the olive branch his mother offers, then Andrew sees through her excuses, causing her to accuse him of sleeping with Ashley. Ironically, Ashley overhearing this causes the siblings' relationship to improve considerably, with more mutual respect and friendly banter. After the ritual, Ashley dreams about dolls representing the important people in her and Andrew's lives, culminating in a symbolic painting where she either chooses to let Andrew go (the "Sane" ending), or keeps him for herself, leading to a visison of BrotherSisterIncest.
