In the ever-tightening coils of the Kali Yuga, where Dharma wanes and the air chokes with despair, the world has become a grotesque harvest ground for the Asuras. These ancient, power-hungry beings have twisted cosmic loopholes and unleashed a divine poison, the Asuric Corruption, transforming billions into mindless thralls to fuel their dominion. The Corpse Mountain, a horrifying testament to their cruelty, stands as a monument to a world lost.
But from that mountain of death, an anomaly stirs. A lone survivor, imbued with the collective resentment of dead souls, awakens as the Vessel of Sorrow. He carries within him the tumultuous echoes of rage, wisdom, and apathy—an internal battlefield mirroring the decaying world outside. Guided by the subtle wisdom of a forgotten age, he must navigate a razor's edge between the seductive madness of power and the arduous path of true humanity.
His fight is not just against the monstrous Asura Lords and their spreading blight, but against the very torment that fuels him. Can the Vessel of Sorrow liberate the tormented spirits before the Asuras' final, world-ending harvest, or will he succumb to the echoes of resentment that threaten to make him indistinguishable from the very darkness he fights?
Hi everyone! I’ve just released the few chapters of my novel, and as this is my first time writing, I’d really appreciate your honest feedback. Do you think the story has potential and is worth continuing, or should I focus my energy elsewhere? Your thoughts and suggestions mean a lot to me and will help me decide whether to keep developing this novel. Thank you for reading. P.S. I had to give myself a 5-star rating just to leave a review—bit shameless, I know! But I promise I’m genuinely looking forward to your thoughts.
