Project END is a queer cosmic horror short story collection in the early stages of planning and drafting.

Shout out to @wolfehorror.itch.io for hosting this event! And for the #wolfetober prompts that inspired this project.

#SLUDGEPIT #WIP #H
Neon yellow and green text surrounds a collection of three pictures. The title reads: “Sludgepit.” Text bottom tagline reads: “Project END #wip” and “E. Saint @saintwinther.” The first photograph spans the middle area in a filmstrip frame, an image of clouds fill opposite corners with a diagonal streak of clear skies between. Eye graphics of various sizes appear in the clouds. A pink neon sign hovers in the upper left corner, reads: “Nothing to see here.” Small cursive below it reads: “this is not the end” and the word “end” is slashed out. Nearby text reads: “m X cosmic abomination.” The second photograph stands vertically near the right side with a phone camera frame. It shows a pair of statues, one being Jesus with a golden halo. Black scribbles cover this figure. Nearby text reads: “detachment from reality.” The third photograph centered in the lower area is a Polaroid, the portrait of an angel statue with crossed arms, and a bloody handprint covers her face. Nearby text reads: “grief.” Small cursive written on the Polaroid frame reads: “he can never recover from.”

Greed points at everything they want and grasps anything they can. Their true form is unseen. Their own hand partially blinds them. Different eyes puncture their crown, stolen from others. They float, detached from all. Their stick is sharpened at both ends

Seven Deadly sins - Greed
Tall floating figure made out of several layers of red cloth, being gripped by many golden hands with red cracks. They grasp a large golden stick. Their face is crowned by hands pointing in every direction. One of them covers their eye. They have pairs of different eyes stabbed through their face. Red eyes.

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.

QRP with your dark art 👁️
A complex composition with the main upper panel being a study from Nosferatu. Mars is looking outside the open window, sweat on his skin, red drops falling from his neck, and eyes wide open, while the shadow of a clawed hand is creeping up his face. His slightly parted lips show vampire like canines. There are three stylized roses on the side, from Mars' family crest. At the top, a banner shows a coral or veins like decoration with two wolves looking at a small nest with three eggs in it. A square to the side shows a field of flowers. At the bottom, Mars' silhouette is drawn with spider webs. An arched frame shows the ruins of a gothic church or temple of some sort. A wave is crossing the bottom left of the art, with stylized white anemones in it. The text at the bottom center reads: until the end. Nothing to worry about in this art. Tower tarot card featuring Mars in the middle of a field under a stormy sky. He's turning back, a hand holding his old zweihander, a look of surprise and disbelief on his face. Out of the frame, Will's hand reaches for him. In the background, a dark tower shows part of the party stopping Mars from leaving. Mars following his late bosses up an empty theater stairs. They're all wearing white and gold because it matched well with the golden stairs and the snake made out of money, crawling up the picture. At the bottom center, a square shows the seaside. Other green squares appear on the picture, with various symbols in them. Under the seaside square, there are a bunch of lemons. Mars, paladin dhampir, showing off his kinda cursed attire, as his armor grew onto his skin with his blood. Behind him, in a frame, a black and white landscape with Will and Mars kissing under some trees. The frame shows white roses, grapes and pomegranates on a red table cloth. A stylized maze is drawn in the dark background.
