Horror
A small village falls into turmoil after garnering the attention of a deceitful monster. Inspired by cultures described in Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe. This story originally started as a fun project for English class, but I got invested in the idea I had started and had to complete the story. Everything that happens within the story has a reason, and I was heavily inspired by stories included in the Old Testament of the Bible, while the Bible is not at all necessary for the complete understanding of this story, knowledge of spiritual affairs does play a key part in understanding the meaning behind the events in the story.

Long ago, 4 gods ruled over humanity since their beginning, but after growing bored, they decided to play a game with humanity. Dividing their power into 52 cards that give humans a part of their power, the gods then disappeared leaving behind a prophecy that said one card wielder would rule over them. The rest of humanity then began hunting down the 52 card users with extreme violence, but since a card would randomly pass to another person in the world, they began imprisoning them. Years past, now in modern-day, a boy hurt and scared because of the hunt for the card wielders, blames the gods and so the Devil bestowed upon him their card. Finding himself in a city for card wielders, he uses his devil's luck to win the game against the gods. (All pics/vids/ect: belong to their makers)
