The Modern Faust
Felix was never meant to live happily ever after. Not with a God who calls his love a sin. Not with a fiancé who chose salvation over him. And not with a heart that won't stop aching to change his fate. So when a demon named Memphis offers him the chance to become normal, Felix doesn't hesitate. He signs away his soul to kill the part of himself he can no longer bear to live with. But the devil deals in illusions, and what begins as a dream quickly spirals into a nightmare of lies, madness, and blood. A fusion of Faust and Medea, this modern tragedy dives into the brutal consequences of internalized homophobia, the war between faith and desire, and the terrifying price of rewriting your nature. The Modern Faust tells the story of a man who dares to defy what he is and loses everything. Note: This is still a work in progress, suggestions are welcomed, and I will do my best to implement them as long as they maintain the soul of this work.Complete
