Each religion claims its faith, and interpretation differs from other religions. Still, they seem to agree that the Evil or dark force indulges you first. Before long, you are eagerly jumping on the rail of corruption. Nothing, nobody can touch you or oppose you. A few of the corrupted may get away with it, and their dark secrets are carried to their tomb. However, the good time comes to a halt all of a sudden. I, for one, am grateful to this man who plucked up the courage to expose the Goliah in my True horror stories in the Modern Paris series. Because of his courage, I am getting some of the justice denied to me while this Goliah was in power.
CHARACTERS
SERPENT, aka NAGA, the eight-headed deity. The snake represents the frailty that sees us stray from the path and often into darkness. Big predators make the headlines, but ordinary people are tempted to commit small-scale cheating when shielded under the mantle of anonymity. On good days we can fight off the temptation, but on bad days when we have just lost something and the world seems unfair, our hands reach out for it while a sinking feeling spreads inside our hearts, warning us that this is not the way to get even with life. However, God or the universe may not mind if the gain is minimal? So we tell ourselves.
NAGA represents
the second chance and atonement in life.
GODDESS
IRIS/NEMESIS: Instead of picking one from the existing religions, all
of which I respect, I opted to represent the universe's will via Goddess
IRIS. God gave us light, and Goddess followed it up with the sound, but
as sound travels slower than light, no one knows her existence despite
benefiting from her gift, music. Something turned this once open-book
IRIS into NEMESIS, Goddess of Retribution.
THE
SPIRIT of LOUIS XIII: The king of France who reigned
from 14 May 1610 – to 14
May 1643. Enigmatic character the world may not have fully appreciated,
not unlike the current, which can be substantial even if the river looks calm.
OMELETTE: the dog who was the pet of Louis XIII in its former life.
