An Imperceptible Ruse Indeed (The Gods' Executioner Series) - Plot & Excerpts
The large tubing, that must be an esophagus, drops me fifty feet into the center of a chamber that I can only assume is this creature’s stomach; I deploy my flight to keep from falling and I gently touch down onto the squishy pink floor. Green lights along the inner walls of the chamber slightly illuminate the area as I realize that there isn’t any water in here, which should be completely impossible. What the fuck is going on? Did I just get swallowed by Moby Dick? No wait, I’m thinking of the whale from Pinocchio… what’s its name…? Monstro? Well, the first thing that I need to do is figure a way out of here. I could probably just hack my way out, but that would most likely kill whatever swallowed me and I’m interested in seeing what this thing is; plus, it might be the last of its kind considering how big it is and that would be a waste. Besides, I still have quite a bit of time until Ryuji gets to the palace anyway since it’s a twelve hour flight from Seattle to Shanghai, giving me about eight hours until he lands and then there’s the travel time from Shanghai to the crystal palace.
