Greed and envy were the flaws of gods long before they became the downfall of humans.
My name is Susuda. Close friends call me Su. I was abandoned as an infant upon temple steps, but for the grace of the goddess Inanna, was found and adopted by the best mother anyone could ever wish for. She raised me to be a strapping man fit to guard our city of Uruk under the rule of King Gilgamesh, in ancient Sumeria.
But what are we if not mere pawns in the quarrels between gods? The fate that met me feels cruel and unfair, and yet it led me to where I stand today, stained by the blood of those who loved me. For I am The Gatekeeper, and in my hands I hold the fate of the millennia-old war between the conduits. Neither beast nor human, neither gidim nor full conduit, it is only I who can open the gates. Step in and listen to my story…
Travel back in time and enjoy this short character spin-off of The Conduit Chronicles.
