Vasuki's Calling

Many years ago, the great dragon Astarot began attacking the local orphanage, once every year, taking with him a single orphan every time. In a bid to appease his annual raids, and prevent the collateral damage that came with them, the townspeople began holding an annual festival, where they would sacrifice an orphan to him.

Vasuki's hopes and dreams are crushed when he discovers that he has been chosen for the next sacrifice. But just when he's losing all hope, a secret is unveiled. Faced with an incredible moral dilemma, Vasuki comes to realise that he is no ordinary human. Finally, he has found his calling.

This story won't be updated again. I've decided to write and sell it as a novel. Consider this to be a spoiler of the original manuscript.
