SOUL COLLECTOR

As science and rational thought began to spread across the globe, people became less and less inclined to worship Those who were once venerated by millions. Consequently, the ancient gods began to show signs of age, suffering as mortals do. They soon discovered, however, the value of human youth, which has the ability to cool and temporarily heal the debilitating effects inattention wreaked upon Them.

Malcolm is almost two centuries old and a slave, a position forced upon him partly to alleviate the gods’ suffering and partly as punishment for his crimes. His pedophilic exploits as a young man did not go unnoticed by Them (senile and sightless though They were from lack of worship) and so They sent the god of retribution to turn Malcolm, a common street performer, into a mindless collector of Their medicine, his soul sliced out and consumed by the gleeful god for its therapeutic youth. Now, in punishment as in life, Malcolm roams the Earth stealing the souls of children, his organ&'s elegant music lulling them into offering the ultimate sacrifice to the gods.
