33 parts Ongoing Jake Rivers was always a parasite. He just didn't know it could be literal.
A forgotten god caught him cheating at carnival games and decided to make the metaphor flesh. Now Jake is microscopic. Blind. Starving. A brain-eating worm in a fantasy world where magic is real and death comes from inside.
Every creature he enters dies within weeks, neural pathways consumed one memory at a time. But first, they become legend!
Jake takes one ability from each host. They gain all of his. Symbiosis and murder, always together.
And he's getting addicted. Simple animal thoughts were bland. Complex minds are intoxicating. Intelligent consciousness tastes like nothing he's ever experienced. Every memory he consumes is better than the last, and the hunger grows stronger with each kill.
The locals call it the Whisperer's Blessing. Power and death, arriving as one. Naga serpent-lords take notice of the pattern. But Jake is seeing something they can't: he's been everyone. Both predator and prey. He experiences reality from every angle, and reality is breaking.
Magic is corrupting. Concepts are bleeding together. Something eldritch is pushing through the cracks between worlds, and the scattered civilizations of Ouroboros can't see it coming because they've never been anything but themselves.
Jake has been everything. Knows languages no single being should speak. Understands magic from perspectives that shouldn't exist. He's becoming something unprecedented. Something necessary. Something monstrous.
The god wanted him honest about what he was.
Be careful what you wish for.
This parasite might be the only thing that can consume an apocalypse.
Dark progression fantasy. Visceral body horror. An addict climbs the food chain toward godhood.
