Looming Thread (lemmy.world)

Imagine if the Fabric of Space-time as a literal piece of cloth of infinite length and width. Within the cloth lies everything which had or would have happened, the Universal Machine Loom hums along dutifully as its shuttles pace across the Fabric from one infinity to the other, the Threads of Fate of men and object interwoven as one piece, the resulting Great Fabric of Space-time wrinkles and ripple within the turbulent flows of the Ether.

So, suppose then, the existence of Those Which Lives In Between, scurrying along the Fabric, aimlessly in search of goals incomprehensible to the Thread-coiled Minds. At the first signs of a single loose gossamer the violating Thread of Fate is pulled aside, and then severed; With the severing terminates its singular connection to the Great Fabric, its thread-head lays bare, unraveling, an ugly, gaping moth-hole in Reality, as Those Which Lives in Between tears apart and feasts upon the threads of That Which Could Have Been.

Imagine if the Fundamental Truth is as presented; Then, it could be said that the Universal Fate of all Threads is to end.

Yeah, I've been a bit busy to sit down and write for the last week. Tell your friends, and write something here of you want. This is an inclusive place after all.

Inspired by r/nosleep, but without the "Everything here is true" and "You can't criticize the OP" rule. Post your scariest original short stories here.

Rules are simple:

  1. Be nice, criticize constructively, no name-calling.
  2. No obvious AI generated stories, or other spam.
  3. Everything posted here is creative fiction, any similarity to real life is pure coincidence.
  4. Prompts are allowed, but should be prefaced with "[WP]"
  5. Collaborative storytelling is fun, so if you'd like to continue your own story or other people's story as a series in the comments, start your comment with [CHAIN]
  6. Troll/Parody Stories would be allowed on Sundays, but the title should start with "[PARODY]"
