Synopsis
Five short stories about death, the savagery of human desires, and faith.
Contrasts - A specific kind of person is acquiring a very specific service, and that's all I can tell you without spoiling it.
Nyarlathotep - When the ancient Egyptian god decided to bring Earth to its knees with a single debilitating vision he did not account for Bar, a 4-chan dwelling Incel, to stand in his way. Lovercraft meets creepy-pasta.
Judges - In the Old Testament, Judges were warlords turned governors, blessed by god with magical power so they could rule over Cna'an. Yehushafat, a judge past his prime, finds a corpse at the edge of his domain. His journey to find the killer leads him to confront his past, and the nature of his powers.
Raven and Wolf - Two lovers fight. A human intervenes.
Gortox - The only sentient creature in the universe, and her attempts to find a friend.
CW: readers looking for trigger warnings should probably give this anthology a pass.
Completed.
