  "writing": "Dark Traditions\n\nBy: Mikolai\n\nThe secluded and superstitious village of Elderenstone is nestled in a medieval kingdom's rolling hills and lush forest. The village has known nothing but prosperity, with no illness or plagues in its history. All this thriving comes at a scary price. The village has a horrifying ritual that takes place every four years. Three children, barely teenagers, are chosen to be sacrificed to the gods to ensure a bountiful harvest and protection from the myriad dangers that plague other villages in the kingdom.\n\nThis time, the unlucky children were all boys. Cedric, a strapping 14-year-old snow leopard with silver fur, dark spots, and eyes as green as the springtime fields. Gavric, a fellow 14-year-old lion with the muscular build of a blacksmith’s son and light brown eyes that you could stare into all day and night. Finally, the youngest of the trio, Jorah, a 13-year-old mouse. The boy has light brown fur, whose lithe form and piercing blue eyes belied his quiet, thoughtful nature.\n\nAs the fateful day dawned, the cubs were taken from their houses before nightfall, stripped of their clothes, and bathed in holy water, blessed by the village elders, hoping the gods would favor them. Then, their hands were tied firmly behind their backs with rough hemp rope that bit into their skins. The boys are then led through the jeering, taunting crowds gathered in the village square. In the center, the crude gallows awaited them, a grim reminder of the unspeakable act that was about to transpire. \n\nThe teens struggled against their bonds, their athletic bodies slick with sweat as they writhed and tugged, trying to free themselves from their inescapable fate. Their faces were masks of fear, anger, and determination, and their eyes shone with unshed tears as they locked gazes with their loved ones one last time, walking past them. The guards would not allow anything to happen to them or let the boys escape on their watch as they led the boys to the gallows.\n\nAs the boys were forced onto the trap doors, the nooses were placed around their necks by the executioner. At the same time, the cub’s large cocks sprang to life, a final, desperate act of defiance and longing. A small patch of dark pubic fur adorned the base of each throbbing organ, a testament to their budding manhood and the cruelty of their fate. The executioner thought it was a shame these boys were dying as they would have made some fortunate maiden happy in life.\n\nThe villagers watched in awed silence as the boys’ erections bounced and twitched, their faces flushed with shame and arousal. A few females giggled and blushed, viewing the teen’s manhood displayed to them. Not to let the sacrifices wait too long for their ill fate, the village high elder, a goat, came onto the gallows, adorning himself in a dark robe with an ancient book. He read from it and started the ritual as he chanted out loud. The execution waited for his signal. Several minutes later, as the high elder finished chanting, he nodded to the executioner. The lever was pushed down without saying a word, causing the trap doors to open. \n\nAs the cubs fell, they hoped the noose would give them a quick death. Sadly, the noose stopped the boy’s descent as it dug into their necks and failed to kill them instantly. Their bodies are suspended in a gruesome dance of life and death now. No one dared say a word as the cubs were dying before them.\n\nThe struggle of the boys was agonizing, each one of their muscles straining and bulging as they fought against their restraints to stay alive. They were kicking wildly without direction, gasping for air that would never come. At first, a light shade of red appeared across their face, then dark purple, as they gasped for air, their lungs burning from the lack of oxygen. Each twist and turn against the rope restraints caused it to dig deeper into their wrists. Soon sweat dripped from their bodies, soaking their fur and running in rivers down their faces, torsos, and bouncing cocks.\n\nAnd yet, despite the agony, their cocks remained rigid and erect, the heads swollen and flush with blood. The boys’ hips bucked and jerked, their bodies instinctively seeking release, even as their minds screamed in terror and despair of dying.\n\nAs time passed for almost an hour, the villagers grew restless. Their initial awe and horror gave way to a bloodthirsty hunger for spectacle. They jeered and called out, urging the boys to fight and provide them with a show they had come to see—all in hopes that this would please the gods the longer the boys struggled.\n\nBut the boys’ strength was waning now, their bodies betraying them even as their minds willed them to hold on no matter how hopeless their situation was. And then, just as the darkness began to encroach upon their vision, a strange and wonderous thing happened.\n\nIn that final, desperate moment, each boy’s body was wracked by a shuddering, earth-shattering orgasm, their cocks spasming and jerking as they ejaculated in a series of powerful spurts. It was as if their very souls were being ripped from their bodies, a cataclysmic release of life and energy, as their semen landed on the ground below them to nourish the earth like so many before them.\n\nThe villagers stared in stunned silence as the cubs’ bodies twitched a couple of times before they went limp. Their cocks were still spasming from the aftermath of their climaxes. And then, with a sickening finality, the boys were still, their lives extinguished in a blaze of glory. The only thing that remains of them is their dead bodies, as their erections stay hard.\n\nThe square was filled with a heavy, somber silence, the weight of what had just transpired settling like a shroud over the gathered crowd. And then, as if on cue, the villagers began to celebrate, their initial shock and horror giving way to festivity. They lit a big bonfire and torches around the village square. Food was set on tables everywhere, and music played.\n\nThat night, the villagers celebrated the boys’ deaths, feasting and drinking long into the night. And through it all, the three bodies hung from the gallows, the flickering light from the torches casting eerie shadows over their still forms. It was a grim reminder of the price that had to be paid for the village’s survival, a sacrifice that would be remembered for generations to come as the elders wrote Cedric, Gavric, and Jorah’s names in a book.\n\nThe next day, the cub’s families grieved for their deaths. Their bodies were taken down and given a proper burial as the villagers prayed their respects to the boys who had given their lives for their people. As the graves were filled, the villagers looked on, knowing that it would be four long years before they would have to face this terrible ritual once more.\n\nUnbeknownst to the villagers, the village was on the brink of destruction when the first settlers stayed there. The villagers then made a deal with a demonic sergal whose name had been lost to time. All the demon wanted was entertainment. Thus, the sacrifices began and would happen every four years as the deal required from the village. Unlike most of his kind, this demon was not a complete monster. He never devoured or sent the poor souls to hell. Like all the other sacrifices, the boys were allowed into heaven for their deeds. And like so long ago, the village prospered for four more years.\n",

Then, their hands were tied firmly behind their backs with rough hemp rope that bit into their skins. The boys are then led through the jeering, taunting crowds gathered in the village square. In the center, the crude gallows awaited them, a grim reminder of the unspeakable act that was about to transpire. <br /><br />The teens struggled against their bonds, their athletic bodies slick with sweat as they writhed and tugged, trying to free themselves from their inescapable fate. Their faces were masks of fear, anger, and determination, and their eyes shone with unshed tears as they locked gazes with their loved ones one last time, walking past them. The guards would not allow anything to happen to them or let the boys escape on their watch as they led the boys to the gallows.<br /><br />As the boys were forced onto the trap doors, the nooses were placed around their necks by the executioner. At the same time, the cub&rsquo;s large cocks sprang to life, a final, desperate act of defiance and longing. A small patch of dark pubic fur adorned the base of each throbbing organ, a testament to their budding manhood and the cruelty of their fate. The executioner thought it was a shame these boys were dying as they would have made some fortunate maiden happy in life.<br /><br />The villagers watched in awed silence as the boys&rsquo; erections bounced and twitched, their faces flushed with shame and arousal. A few females giggled and blushed, viewing the teen&rsquo;s manhood displayed to them. Not to let the sacrifices wait too long for their ill fate, the village high elder, a goat, came onto the gallows, adorning himself in a dark robe with an ancient book. He read from it and started the ritual as he chanted out loud. The execution waited for his signal. Several minutes later, as the high elder finished chanting, he nodded to the executioner. The lever was pushed down without saying a word, causing the trap doors to open. <br /><br />As the cubs fell, they hoped the noose would give them a quick death. Sadly, the noose stopped the boy&rsquo;s descent as it dug into their necks and failed to kill them instantly. Their bodies are suspended in a gruesome dance of life and death now. No one dared say a word as the cubs were dying before them.<br /><br />The struggle of the boys was agonizing, each one of their muscles straining and bulging as they fought against their restraints to stay alive. They were kicking wildly without direction, gasping for air that would never come. At first, a light shade of red appeared across their face, then dark purple, as they gasped for air, their lungs burning from the lack of oxygen. Each twist and turn against the rope restraints caused it to dig deeper into their wrists. Soon sweat dripped from their bodies, soaking their fur and running in rivers down their faces, torsos, and bouncing cocks.<br /><br />And yet, despite the agony, their cocks remained rigid and erect, the heads swollen and flush with blood. The boys&rsquo; hips bucked and jerked, their bodies instinctively seeking release, even as their minds screamed in terror and despair of dying.<br /><br />As time passed for almost an hour, the villagers grew restless. Their initial awe and horror gave way to a bloodthirsty hunger for spectacle. They jeered and called out, urging the boys to fight and provide them with a show they had come to see&mdash;all in hopes that this would please the gods the longer the boys struggled.<br /><br />But the boys&rsquo; strength was waning now, their bodies betraying them even as their minds willed them to hold on no matter how hopeless their situation was. And then, just as the darkness began to encroach upon their vision, a strange and wonderous thing happened.<br /><br />In that final, desperate moment, each boy&rsquo;s body was wracked by a shuddering, earth-shattering orgasm, their cocks spasming and jerking as they ejaculated in a series of powerful spurts. It was as if their very souls were being ripped from their bodies, a cataclysmic release of life and energy, as their semen landed on the ground below them to nourish the earth like so many before them.<br /><br />The villagers stared in stunned silence as the cubs&rsquo; bodies twitched a couple of times before they went limp. Their cocks were still spasming from the aftermath of their climaxes. And then, with a sickening finality, the boys were still, their lives extinguished in a blaze of glory. The only thing that remains of them is their dead bodies, as their erections stay hard.<br /><br />The square was filled with a heavy, somber silence, the weight of what had just transpired settling like a shroud over the gathered crowd. And then, as if on cue, the villagers began to celebrate, their initial shock and horror giving way to festivity. They lit a big bonfire and torches around the village square. Food was set on tables everywhere, and music played.<br /><br />That night, the villagers celebrated the boys&rsquo; deaths, feasting and drinking long into the night. And through it all, the three bodies hung from the gallows, the flickering light from the torches casting eerie shadows over their still forms. It was a grim reminder of the price that had to be paid for the village&rsquo;s survival, a sacrifice that would be remembered for generations to come as the elders wrote Cedric, Gavric, and Jorah&rsquo;s names in a book.<br /><br />The next day, the cub&rsquo;s families grieved for their deaths. Their bodies were taken down and given a proper burial as the villagers prayed their respects to the boys who had given their lives for their people. As the graves were filled, the villagers looked on, knowing that it would be four long years before they would have to face this terrible ritual once more.<br /><br />Unbeknownst to the villagers, the village was on the brink of destruction when the first settlers stayed there. The villagers then made a deal with a demonic sergal whose name had been lost to time. All the demon wanted was entertainment. Thus, the sacrifices began and would happen every four years as the deal required from the village. Unlike most of his kind, this demon was not a complete monster. He never devoured or sent the poor souls to hell. Like all the other sacrifices, the boys were allowed into heaven for their deeds. And like so long ago, the village prospered for four more years.<br /></span>",
