A chilling lesson in the dangers of inertia and choosing the easy option.

I love these deities that do these things with almost a nonchalance about them. It really brings home, from what I know about Greek Mythology, how blasé they were about humanity and going about "helping" them. Ok, I definitely need to do another Collectible Soul short for November. Nyx is so darkly cool, I'm inspired 🤣

And, yes, I would love to read another of yours! 'Upon the Ninth' was so good. I'm still thinking about it!

Yes, I’m really playing on that whole indifference thing in my stories, and yes - those magnanimous gestures without a thought of the human cost. I think maybe some of my anger about the distance and indifference of policy makers and the 1% is bleeding into my fiction!
