A Gamble (Caution: Scary)

A Gamble (Caution: Scary)

Mar 29, 2025

Act I - Horror: Monster

A monster was attacking the village of Djéirun. People were afraid and could settle too comfortably in their homes or places of leisure. People close to them had been killed and eaten. Their skin was ripped away from their bodies. They prayed to find a Holy Comb to protect them from these attacks.

Act II - Myth: Talisman

They prayed to the Will of Djé to protect them from these misfortunes, to find the Holy Comb, because they preferred the gamble that it was finding a Holy Comb that could protect them from a hungry Music Monster, other than not. But a holy comb was not found for a long time and the music Monsters kept appearing and growing in number, now fear and doubt and turned into desperation and certainty that they would die there if they didn't do anything drastic. People started killing themselves in desperation.

Act III - Science Fiction: Fulcrum Technology

Then, one day, a small child prayed to the Will of djé not to help her find a holy comb, but to give her the strength to show her baby brother that everything would be fine, and surprisingly enough the holy comb appeared in front of her giving her the strength to not only show her little brother everything would be okay but to also eradicate every music monster infesting the village and saving her people from extinction.
