This Diary Is Fascinating

It's written by a thief king named Abdalin, and his accomplice, William. I wasn't even aware the name William existed back then, and I find it a rather interesting coincidence that we have the same first name. He talks about seeing a beautiful woman with swords for fingers, who reveals  to him that the man Moses had been employed by the Gods Of Darkness, and they would soon be entering the world to create 10 disasters. The Plagues. Well, this contradicts basically everything I've ever learned.

The first God to appear was the Bleeding Lust, who replaced the water with the blood of her servants.

The second God was the Living Sea, who took control of all the frogs in the land, turning them into the Camper, and then sent them to fall upon the land.

The third God was the Swarm, who sent a hoard of lice and gnats across Egypt.

The Hound Of Destruction arrived afterwards, and, together with the Swarm, unleashed a mass flies and evil canines.

The fifth God was the King Of Illness, who caused disease to the livestock. He then turned his attention to the humans, giving them boils and sores all over their bodies.

Then the Frozen Orphan and the Storming Skyborn used their combined power to cover Egypt in thunderstorms and hail.

Then the Swarm returned to unleash the plague of locust.

Then the Darkness came and eclipsed the sun.

The final Gods to appear were the Stranger and the Angel Of Chaos, who murdered the firstborns of Egypt.

Abdalin and William watch this happening from afar, keeping each other safe. They were under the protection of a woman made of wood, who they referred to as the Carved Empress.



The Gods of Darkness. The Heralds of the Plagues. The Bleeding Lust, the Living Sea, the Swarm, the Hound Of Destruction, the King of Illness, the Frozen Orphan, the Storming Skyborn, the Darkness, the Stranger, and the Angel Of Chaos. They were the cause of the plagues.

I'm also curious about the Carved Empress and the woman with swords for fingers. I'm not quite finished with the book yet, but I'm hoping it'll have some more answers.


The shadows grow closer.
