Talk:The Number of Darkness/@comment-26129088-20150713154802

Of course I like stories of demonic posession.

I actually laughed when I read "Come.  Come join us, father." Now, I didn't laugh because I'm a sick pervert, but because my mind was like "Holy freak, what a crappy situation to be in."

Then I laughed again shortly after he had awoken from his oddly realistic dream. I was like, "Whoo.  Sucks to be him." I felt really bad for the protagonist. Such a good man going through so much bullcrap.

As usual, I really enjoyed your pasta. Even though you had already stated that BlackNumber1 would make a cameo appearance, it took me several minutes to figure out he was the priest. I kept seeing the "Black Number" references and I was like "What the frig are they talking abo- OH RIGHT!  I get it now!"

The historical context was great. You seem very thourough in your research of how things were in your county during that time period. Not just that, but how you tied it in to the story and how, basically, the Tuluwat Island Massacre was pretty much caused by the influences of Hell.

Though, I am curious as to the priest's past. What exactly was this "Black Number" he had committed? Why the heck was he flaying himself? I guess that may be stuff that's up to me (the reader) to intepret, but you know me. I'm not exactly an intellectual when it comes to stuff like this.

Either way, I'm sure you don't need me to tell you to keep writing great stuff.
