ヴィノッド・ヴェンカパリ

Vinod Venkapalli

Darkness is growing over the creatures isolated on the land, and they no longer remember the warmth of day. The gods have forsaken this land, and malice and hatred fill every corner. There is no love, for the world is filled with despicable human beings tearing each other apart, struggling only to advance their own lives. The land only serves as a battleground for destructive beings living in a world of their own. Betrayal and deceit is the new normal. Prayers have multiplied yet the heavens remain silent. Desperate for hope, the creatures turn towards false gods. Yet death is in every corner, lurking, patiently waiting for its next prey.

Animals are tortured and sacrificed. Innocent beings are abused for the fake idea of a better future, only to be abandoned. How can those who inflict harm be forgiven so easily? Is this why prayers exist? How can such deep sins be cleansed? When will this endless night end, this journey through darkness and dread, never knowing what horror lies ahead? When will I feel the light again? I am exhausted, and I can bear no more.
