Thyrsus falling

by Sean Adams

On a private tropical island far from any other shore, the wealthiest and most powerful come together to plan their various schemes and indulge insatiable appetites. With them naturally is the standard retinue of servants and invitees; the latter serving as stage props and attractions for the amusement of their capricious benefactors. But through the eyes of a chance first hand observer, the story here will play out in a way that will horrify even them.
