Thank you so much! I think it being in second-person elevates that feeling. There's a lot of potential there for scares because of that particular POV's immediacy
This tidbit is actually the POV of my antagonist in my WIP horror novel. He's very much defined by Buddhist tenets and is indeed incredibly ancient. There's a lot more backstory than what's on display here, though I was able to carry over the second-person narration from the book into this post since Aurelian's format meshed seamlessly with it.
I appreciate that! It's a bit of a contemporary fantasy/supernatural horror with a whole host of multicultural, folkloric terror at play. Bending lots of genres, too. I'm not close to it being done whatsoever, but once there's news about it, I'll let the people know.
Truly disturbing. Great job! The image of the flames at the end reality made it feel like a demon ritual.
Thanks! I was thinking of Black Phillip from The Witch and Mamiya from Cure for this one.
I love the cultural combo here & creepy vibe.
Wow this is fantastic! So creepy and beautiful 🥰

I think so too!
The addition of Buddhist ideas also added to that feeling, made it seem like a more ancient being if that makes sense!
