You are known as the God of the Condemned. You rule over a palace underground, and the kingdom sends all their criminals to you, dressed in red, and you kill them yourself (or I was also thinking large cats or dogs?). One day, someone comes to you, this time dressed in white, and carrying a sword.

Oh, I forgot to specify. I'm working on a book in which my main characters abusive mother gets involved with a gang/cult and is then forced to join. I need something to kick off how she is forced to join, the initiation process, what her mother does to get her to join…etc.

@p3ncil

@Emmalee, its really up to you about why they want them to join, but initiation processes could be branding/ tattoos, taking oaths, blood oaths (though that's how you get blood diseases so…). Uh, sometimes cults or gangs have 'missions' where they have to prove that they are worthy (these can go from vandalism to arson to murder,) but if they're being forced to join, they might fail on purpose

I got this last night: "There are some lights that should never be turned off."

@p3ncil

"It's in my bones. I don't know what it is, but I do know that if I don't get rid of it, it will kill me."

ok how about this one, "You see one person everyday, just once. And in that time a memory appears, something you've never done before. It goes on for three years until one day you don't see him. You hear a voice; it isn't yours, and it's in your head."

@Bianca di Angelo

dont know if this is creepy but you could have a cult and they have to overthrow the royalty. the leader falls in love with the princess/ prince and they have to work as a double agent

@p3ncil

You come home early and find someone you care about bleeding on the floor, like they'd been stabbed multiple times. As you rush forward to help them, they wave you off saying, "Don't worry, I'm used to it."

@p3ncil

Mmmm well generally I love like midnight grocery store trips prompts, or getting lost in the forest, if those are the kind of things you're looking for
