13 The Wrath of God
Oct 19, 2025
This was one of the hardest scenes to draw… not because of the action, but because of what it means. There’s no heroism left, only exhaustion, and acceptance.
When I first read the line “that day darkness caught up with me again, and I died,” I heard it like a whisper, not a scream.
Thank you for reading this far. Next time, we rise again - but for now, let’s stay here a little longer, in the silence after the thunder.
(But if it’s unbearable, the next novella chapter is right now on: Patreon.com/gloriamu )

It is slightly confusion that the arrow is fired from left to right, the directuion in which one reads.
I assume it was fired not into the bull's back (by his own men), but from his front, by the enemy, coming out at the back. With that line of thought, one can puzzle out that we change perspective. But I assume not every reader would read it like that.

A dark fantasy romance inspired by the Minotaur myth.
Asterius escaped the Labyrinth years ago — but the myth never let him go. Once the Order's most feared warrior, he now hides as a quiet tavern keeper, wanting nothing more than to be forgotten. When a reckless young knight comes to drag him back to the gods, violence and glory he abandoned, Asterius tells him the story of Wind Petal - the woman who first saw the man inside the monster, and gave him a reason to choose an ordinary life.
Art by Lay-Lo.
