Black Magickal Mind

The fantasy world is far more promising of a place to be than believed-or so Srokantha, the protagonist, thought. Srokantha becomes sucked into a whirlwind of lies as she slowly begins to believe the delusions that have ensnared her from the antagonist, Castalia's, black magick. But as matters of life and death face Srokantha, she soon realizes that Castalia's husband, Edris, the object of Srokantha's affections, is enough for her to place value in an afterlife more than the tangibility of the world around her. She hears voices of God and voices of Satan, but there stands a fine line-which, for Srokantha, is often indiscernible--between which voices should be adhered to and which ones should not. For what is eternal often masks the reality of what is transient, and vice versa. All throughout the novel, Srokantha becomes increasingly less aware of what is actually occurring and what is not. Her fantastical state of mind often dictates her sense of reality, as Castalia has controlled her minds with devils more so than Srokantha is aware. As the story nears the end, Srokantha realizes that she must choose between what she knows to be true, and what she loves, or losing everything that she has ever gained. Will Srokantha obtain her reality with God or with Satan, or will her mind of fantasy be forever split between both forces?
