Wow this is a good thriller. It's like watching a movie in my mind. Beautiful landscape, you are quite well versed, are you well familiar with such mythology? Excellent piece.

Thank you very much! I'm glad this was so enjoyable for you. I have a decent amount of background knowledge, but as with most things, I did end up researching a lot of the specifics as needed.

I love mythology and folklore, they are as interesting as learning new languages

A thriller, again! Excellent drama and suspense. This story has been officially received (later than i'd like, because i'm a dingus). Well done--official comments to follow!

Now I want you to write the scripts for a reboot Mummy series. Well done!

Thank you, I'm flattered! I rewatched the Mummy while plotting this. I probably spend 10% of that movie fast-forwarding because the body horror is too much for me. But during the rest of it, I did have the thought that I wish I could write a script that snappy.

This was so atmospheric! And the historical detail was impeccable. This was such a fun (and spooky) ride - I loved it!
