Asphyxia

Gori Suture presents Asphyxia as the first volume in The Paradox Chronicles, a series of metaphysical allegories designed to shock the mind through extreme imagery. The narrative follows Nathaniel, a teenage occultist, and his relationship with Jithinia, described as a nihilistic sexpot. Their dynamic shifts when they encounter Eldridge, a shape-shifting creature cursed to hunger for human souls. The story explores how Eldridge’s growing humanity reveals that true horror stems from monstrosity rather than the creature itself. The plot also tracks Danielle, who was abducted and physically mutilated by her keeper, Preacher, in the name of God. He tortured his broken dolls until they prayed to help them find God. After Danielle prays, she reunites with Jithinia, whose world is now spinning out of control. The characters traverse the sordid underbelly of modern Christian America while engaging in a magnum opus of magick. This work examines the true nature of God through these intersecting lives. This book suits readers interested in metaphysical allegories and supernatural fiction that utilize explicit content, including sex, violence, drugs, and profanity. It draws on themes from occult traditions and critiques religious extremism within a contemporary American setting. Readers seeking gentle romance or conventional horror will likely find the material too disturbing. The narrative structure relies on these specific character arcs to deliver its philosophical arguments without offering comfort.
