RE: ADSactly Short Story - Wisdom of the Gods

in #story6 years ago

@adsactly your choice of images often trill me. I study it and want to implement your pattern on my blog posts. Imagine how much the tree image look like your description.

Alright the story cool. A display of a typical Nigerian story formed by our african traditional setting.

Human sacrifice to deities... Will it ever stop to be told of our african context? Nice story line...

Well, this one is not really about human sacrifice. It is about justice and how the gods deliver it albeit in a cruel and often swift manner. Because of the unfairness of the human justice system, some people in some places still opt for the justice of the gods because after all that is said and done about them and their cruelty, they offer fair judgement to the parties involves. Of course these practices are not known to all. Thank you.

In some settings, the administrators or mouth piece of the deities often manipulate outcomes of things and so, justice could be denied and the innocent punished.

Exactly. The reason this particular deity is effective is because it cannot be manipulated. Any attempt to do so or any attempt to influence the outcome of the judgement is punishable by death.
