August has one more Friday left, so here’s a bonus story idea for you.
The Spirit of the Banished Moon appears to a sun-worshipping people and anoints the town misfit as his champion. Since this Moon Spirit is regarded as an evil god, the misfit is immediately ostracized (like he wasn’t already). When the misfit meets the Moon Spirit next, he discovers that the Moon Spirit isn’t evil after all. There is a far greater evil already at work in this world — one that the Moon and his new champion will defeat. What this Bigger Bad is is up to you. Yet on his way home, the misfit sees the first sign of the Bigger Bad’s infection — strings of bioluminescent moss hanging from a dead tree.
