Shepherd of the Weeping Goddess
In the mystical realm where monsters dance on the edges of reality, there exists a priest named Seraphel, a man whose sanity is tethered by a thread as fragile as the tears that incessantly cascade from his kind eyes. Twisted by a love that borders on madness, Seraphel harbours a dark desire—to end the suffering of the Crying Goddess by spilling her divine blood.
Haunted by an inexplicable mix of pain, sorrow, hatred, and love, Seraphel embarks on a blood-soaked odyssey. His brutal crusade is fueled by the twisted conviction that slaying the goddess will silence her tears and free her from the torment that binds them both. Yet, in the depths of his fractured psyche, he remains ignorant of the origin of his own anguish.
As he traverses the medieval fantasy world, leaving behind a trail of mutilated bodies and shattered souls, Seraphel recites religious texts and delves into profound philosophies about the nature of life. His inner turmoil manifests in the juxtaposition of poetic verses and the grotesque brutality of his actions, creating an unsettling aura around him.
In a paradoxical dance of love and hate, Seraphel is tormented by visions of the Crying Goddess, both tender and nightmarish. He perceives her as both a benevolent mother and a malevolent force, leading him to question the very foundations of his faith. The goddess, in turn, seems to revel in the chaos he unleashes, her tears taking on an otherworldly glow that mirrors Seraphel's descent into madness.
The land quakes as Seraphel's path converges with other beings—some drawn to his madness, others seeking to quell the darkness that emanates from him. As he confronts these challenges, his distorted mind weaves intricate tapestries of justification for his heinous deeds, blurring the line between salvation and damnation.
The novel unfolds in a crescendo of madness and revelation, as Seraphel's internal conflict reaches its climax. In a confrontation with the Crying Goddess herself, truths buried deep within the fabric of existence are unveiled, forcing Seraphel to confront the twisted nature of his love and the harrowing consequences of his actions.
