Mr-Calma
This short story, following the corporeal arrival of Lester F. Lim, or just Lester, the God Of Deception, member of the Entropic Pantheon(from the short story "The Gods Of The Final Apocalypse"). The narrative unfolds through the eyes of a scientifically-minded individual residing in a bustling city, chronicling the descent into chaos and cosmic horror. As Lester's influence spreads, a pervasive fear grips the populace, destabilizing the social and political order. His emergence from Mount Apo marks that he is no longer the mere presence(mentioned at the "LESTER: The Lurker At Gd"), but now walks the world with a physical avatar, to cause more chaos not just with lies, but directly manipulating reality. Manifesting physically is what he likes. He grew tired of being above, so he planned this the entire time, and now he is finally able to roam the universe.
The protagonist, initially skeptical, is drawn to Lester's displays, lured by the promise of profound revelation. These exhibitions, however, serve as gateways to nightmarish visions, revealing hooded figures amidst ruins and malevolent entities lurking behind fallen monuments. The city transforms into a surreal landscape, with familiar landmarks replaced by encroaching grass and missing towers.
As the narrator and others are led into the countryside, they encounter unnatural snows and a chasm that beckons them into the abyss. This descent marks a transition into a realm beyond human comprehension, where the protagonist witnesses the corpses of dead worlds and encounters monstrous entities from beyond the confines of time and space. The narrative culminates in the revelation of Lester's connection to The Scarlet Emperor, Othgorr'ack, and Arcahella, The Empress Of Death.
This is the excerpt of the short story "LESTER: The Lurker At Gd", part of the Transfinitian Myths Universe/TMU. He's also mentioned in the short story "Dreaming Out Of Time", and in "The Gods Of The Final Apocalypse".
