Just realized I was so excited to restack this that I forgot to leave a comment! I can see how we took similar approaches to the prompt, but that twist at the end of your story here with the monster was absolutely brilliant.
I literally shouted "WHAT?!" at my computer screen when I got to that part. Awesome work here. 👏👏
Haha you did NOT omg :’’’D It just made me laugh cuz you talked about killing the guy and releasing the spirits in yours and I’m over here like the muppet side eyeing back and forth, cuz my mc does essentially the same thing lmfao
I have loved reading all of these stories, and it's really cool how similar they are in a way, but how wildly different "similar" can be. Great job! And you got me with the ending. I had several in mind, but this was not one of them. This is the one case in which I absolutely love being wrong! 🤘
Haha thanks so much! Yeah Im not a planner I just go where the story takes me and at the end im like...omg its her mom! And the reason why no one could kill it before and they settled for sacrificing was because no loved one ever came for them in time to break them out of the monstrosity they had become. At least not enough for the beast to recognize their child or what have you and understand what had to be done. Its really a story about love and sacrificing for love in multiple ways.
