Goddesses of Destruction


In the shadowed alleys of a once-thriving metropolis, a chilling legend was whispered among the survivors who dared to share their tales. It was a story of a beautiful yet terrifying woman whose appearance heralded impending doom.


The city had once been a bustling hub of life, but it had fallen victim to the ravages of war. Buildings that once reached for the sky now lay in crumbled ruins, and the once-vibrant streets were eerily silent. Only a handful of people remained, their spirits as fractured as the cityscape around them.

As the survivors huddled around a dimly flickering fire, one old man with haunted eyes began to speak. His voice trembled as he recounted the tale that had been passed down through generations.

"In the days before the city's fall," he began, "there were whispers of a woman, a vision of unparalleled beauty. She would appear at the edge of town, her hair flowing like ebony silk, and her eyes shimmering like pools of mystery. But her beauty was matched only by the terror she invoked."

Another survivor, a middle-aged woman with a faraway look, continued the story. "They say that those who laid eyes upon her were overcome with a profound sense of dread. A feeling that something terrible was about to happen. And they were right."



The fire crackled as the survivors shared their accounts of the woman's appearances. Each time she had been seen, disaster had followed. First, it was a devastating earthquake that shook the city to its core, leaving buildings teetering on the brink of collapse. Then, a deadly outbreak of disease had swept through the remaining population, claiming countless lives.



"But the worst," the old man whispered, "was when she appeared just before the city was bombed into oblivion. We watched in horror as the enemy's planes filled the sky, and the bombs rained down upon us. The city that had once thrived was reduced to rubble in a matter of minutes."


The survivors fell into a heavy silence, the weight of their memories and the legend of the beautiful yet frightening woman hanging over them. It was a story they could never forget, a tale of doom and despair that still haunted their dreams.


As they stared into the dying embers of the fire, they couldn't help but wonder if the woman would ever appear again, heralding another catastrophe. For in a world shattered by tragedy, the line between legend and reality had blurred, and the survivors could only hope that this time, they would find a way to change their fate.
