Demonic Idols

-----

"Something?" I wondered, tilting my head.

"Yes, this… This thing." Angelina said, taking out a wooden idol from her inventory, something that wasn't in the bag Erdrich handled to me. 

It was a bizarre idol, carved out of crimson wood and covered on blood. It had the shape of a six-armed, three-headed, four-legged human-like demon covered on flames.

The demon was sitting over a throne made of skulls and bones, and it had a single, giant eye in the middle of its long head, which ended on two insect-like antennae that were probably horns, actually.

"W-What the hell is that thing?" Rita asked.

Everyone that glanced at this idol felt a strange uneasiness. It emanated a cursed and demonic essence from within, something that just felt not right. It made the whole dinner feel heavier. I even experienced some nausea out of nowhere.
