Your story is infused with a lot of great scene-setting details, @fibre1. It reads like a parable but with richer details and more drama. You did a nice job with this story.
Thank you for sharing your work in The Ink Well, and for engaging with other community members by reading and commenting on their posts.
This story captured my attention, @fibre1. I was wondering whether the religion of the gods or Christianity would win. I didn't have any particular vote, because while I was raised in a Christian household, I also love traditions, and do not like the way Christianity has forced itself on every corner of the world. So my feeling about the ending was mixed. The village became free from the gods, but in so doing they give up their rich past and their traditions, and come under the domination of the Christian church.
All that said, your story is well told, readable and interesting, and the African proverbs add both intrigue and humor.
@fibre1 I apologize. Perhaps I do not understand any of these types of religious stories, and my style was only Investigating Story, yet I found the portrayal of this story is very good, the rest of the religious things I did not understand. Comments from the rest of the community will let you know what worth your story is.
