Story: “The Pit of Heads” (Cringy)

 Terri made a really big mistake, messing with Pandora. Pandora pushed her into a giant hole when Terri was grabbing her stuff, and now, she was praying that there was nothing cursed,dangerous, or sharp in the bottom. Though she saw a mysterious temple at the bottom, she didnt know she was not going to be looking like the aftermath of a raccoon fight.


When she landed, it was, strangely soft and not as bad as she thought it would be. She then looked up and saw the temple, along which were 12 pillars, five of which had mysterious heads floating above them. Bored and scared, she threw a rock at one of them, accidentally waking said head up. 

“Who threw that rock on my cheek?” said the head. Terri was totally scared and confused. If they were just a bunch of stone heads, why could they talk? Then, the remaining four said,

“Do not kill the woman, she is merely scared and does not intend to kill you.”

Terri, scared as fuck, she talked to them. “Who are you and why are you guys here?”

The heads said,

“We are merely reincarnations of a few unfortunate souls who fought Pandora and lost. 12 years ago, we were mere brave warriors who could defeat the strongest of the strongest. The most powerful beasts, the craziest of cosmic horrors.But when Pandora killed us, she turned our bodies into these stone heads, and for a while, we couldnt even speak. However, thanks to our remaining powers, we can talk loud enough for each other to hear, and we were able to generate a forcefield for you. 

We are welcoming to kind prisoners, but even though we are trapped, we can still use our powers to destroy you. At the bottom of this temple is a mysterious void. Luckily, we have the ability to float above it, and if you are about to fall in, two of the now destroyed heads created a forcefield to avoid prisoners like you from dying horribly. But mess with us, and we will use these powers to destroy the forcefield.”

Despite Terri now knowing the heads do not desire her demise, she still was confused. “What happened to the seven other heads that are supposed to be in these other pillars? 

“We obviously were really mad when we were imprisoned here. However, many of us did a really bad mistake, rebelling by destroying parts of the old temple. As punishment, umm…you know those insane seraphim that like to cause violence and death everywhere? Well, a seraphim like that was called, and he unleashed a mysterious light, which destroyed seven of our friends. Now, even after all this, we still live in isolation. Even though we are close to each other, we are still mostly bound by our pillars, though we can move anywhere here except another pillar. If we touch each other or we get on the wrong pillar, we will get killed.

We mostly explore a lot of temple, as its actually interesting. It wasnt owned by Pandora, it was owned by the enemies of her, though we dont know the name. We also like to float around here, and do what we can do. We also tell stories of our life experiences and pains, and reaffirm each other. Though sadly we couldnt do this for seven of the twelve years we were trapped here, we just “slept”. Also, sometimes the seraph will return to check up on us. We all “sleep” so we dont look rebellious. He always watches our asses. Though if you had enough resources to survive whats above us, you can escape, but we cant.”

To Terri, that was that saddest thing she ever heard. Being locked up in a horrid place with nothing to do sounded like the worse type of expereience for her. She then found a mysterious collection of pieces which seemed to show a mysterious eye. After fitting them together, she realized it was weirder than she thought.
