* * * *
The darkness can be terrifying. Long hours of nothing but
endless blackness pierced, broken only by the horrified screams of thousands of
others. Only to be disturbed by those who appear as if by magic with the sole
purpose of beating and abusing you, tormenting you and helping Mada push his
cursed over the edge into madness.
Have you ever tasted madness? Drawn so close, so inevitably close, skirting on
the very edge of despair, as if on the edge of a knife balancing, trying
desperately to cling to that razor's edge, knowing that to slip will push you,
send you plummenting into a bottomless pit of nothingness? Some call us lost
souls, Mada's Cursed. Most of us are but some, some still resist, some still
fight and challenge Mada's rule. Those who don't become nameless, those of us
who do become his favored, those he takes great pleasure in taunting...
I am among his favored. I'm visited daily to be tortured, abused and tormented.
To be a favored of Mada's has few benefits. It's true you don't become so lost
you forget your name, and you don't slide rapidly into the madness he pushes
you towards. Instead you skirt the very edge of it. You dangle by a tiny thread
forever waiting for the inevitable slice that will send you plummeting into
oblivion. You are forever pushed to the edge, pushed hard to the brink, forever
dancing on the edge of a knife and when you finely surrender, finally give in
to despair and cease to resist then, then you become a demon like him and Mada
rejoices for those kinds of victories taste sweetest to him: fallen angels.
Fallen angels who lose their ways, lose their identity and lose their light
surrendering their very souls to the demon monster god, and once you surrender
all then you truly become one among the lost...
