Fic Update Thread 57: Varieties of Fandom Experience

[Mamorien]

In a world borne On The Shoulders Of Titans (all kaiju are true), where Hell Is Empty And All The Devils Are Here, those devils, human and in-, will fight among themselves to their Last Dying Breath.

Among the rubble and death, something dark lurks.

A beast that hungers for the flesh of wicked men.

A best from which there is no escape.

Warning: This chapter is heavily based on the real historical events of the Bosnian War

Notes:
Warning: This chapter is heavily based on the real historical events of the Bosnian War, included acts of brutality comited during said war, such as the massacring and raping of civilians. This story depicts and mentions such war crimes and crimes against humanity in vivid ways, reader discretion is advised.

See the end of the chapter for more notes.

This story, and Bauk -its central Kaiju- was written as a gift for Matkoc , one of my two editors and one of OtSoT's main artists. He created Bauk for me a long while ago, and requested that I write this chapter as a birthday gift. Matkoc happens to be Serbian, and he encouraged me to unflinchingly depict the horrors of the Bosnian War in this chapter, as he feels that it's an aspect of his people's history that is not talked about as often as it should be.

I dedicate this chapter to Matkoc, a wonderful editor, an artist of great skill, and a friend of an admirable moral character.
