  ???????????????????????

  Of course… getting involved with a cult was a bad idea

  And now they want to do sacrifice someone

  Everyone looked around before looking at me

  I was soon called to the altar and laid down

  Guess this is the end

  PAIN

  AGONY

  HATRED

  DO NOT

  FEAR

  THE

  ANCIENT

  ONES

  Blood flowed down the altar as a cult member was sacrificed

  …

  It’s the end of this story is it?

  No

  It can’t end like this

  There must be more

  Jacob wakes up or at least he thinks he did , but why was he not able to move

  He tries to open his eyes but nothing happens until suddenly all of his senses return to him,

  Jacob’s body feels different somehow and so tries to look at his body only to find something he wasn’t expecting.

  His lower body was akin to a ball with 4 spider legs , his torso rigid and unmovable and his hands were seemingly replaced with claws that moved with surgical precision

  Jacob would have freaked out but he didn’t somehow,

  He just wanted to know what was going on and so looked around the area he was in.

  It was a cave with a crudely drawn ritual circle in the center and the exit clearly in sight

  There being nothing in the cave Jacob left.

  Only to find a forest of sort with trees barely half his height,

  Was this seemingly new body larger than before,

  He needed time to think and decided that trying to sleep is probably the best idea maybe he will wake up back at home.
