Micro fiction : "The Disaster." (100 words)
"The Disaster"
Before christianity, the Amago people worshipped a fierce deity – Kabaala. He demanded total devotion, instructing that failure would entail an undisclosed doom.
Amago had been sincere in service.
One year, after a four-day worship, the paramount ruler permitted them to go get food and return for the fifth. Alas! Kabaala, same night, strangled a quarter, about seven thousand; cut each strangled person in pieces and placed each piece, continuously dripping blood, at the entrance and compounds of each household.
Same night, the ruler was mysteriously harpooned. Muu Zor-kol, their only stream, turned bloody. The ensuing cry was unprecedented.
Another nice one from you. You write with passion. Continue the good work.
