TastyAce was sitting in his one-story writing cabin, finishing up the latest of their stories. The anthro crow was writing a piece on Justin, a normal gryphon who had newly attained godhood--or at least, that was the word around here. Tall tales were hard to discern from the truth sometimes, but both were great for creativity.

The crow looked at the words on his typewriter, satisfied with the results. "That should do it!" they said, taking out the paper and stacking it with the others. "I can't wait to show this to the rest of the village--should make enough for me to get some bread!"

He read through the story one more time, and then put it away in his knapsack. Just as he was about to leave his isolated spot and return to the village, there was a loud

/Boom./

"What was that?" the crow muttered, taking food from the kitchen and munching on a pear. "Hope it's not another--"

/BOOM./

"Earthquake!" TastyAce rushed over to the bedroom and ducked under the bed, squeezing his eyes shut. When nothing happened, they slowly opened one eye, then the other, and left the shelter of the bed.

"Guess I was imagining things," the crow muttered, walking to the door and opening it. "I've been writing too long--maybe I should take more breaks--"

/BOOM!/

That's when TastyAce noticed the large shadow looming over him. The crow looked up--and up, and up, and /up/ at the being in front of them. His beak dropped open in total shock, and he was rooted to the spot in fear and wonder.

In front of him, a massive gryphon stood tall--/very/ tall, taller than any tree, with a height that easily reached the clouds and beyond.

The gryphon wore silky blue robes, with a swirl pattern on each side, and most of their body was adorned with that beautiful blue. Some of the being was accented in white, such as his head and beak, and their eyes were glowing yellow.

It was the god he had heard so many stories about--the one his own work was based on! TastyAce didn't know whether to run or stay--he'd heard Justin could be cruel to micros like him, but they were also excited to actually see the god in person.

That's when TastyAce noticed that the glowing yellow eyes were looking right at him. And a smirk was on his face.

The crow gulped. If his mind was more rational, he might've run back inside his cabin, but currently he was frozen in body and mind, unable to properly think in the god's presence.

Justin lifted his foot. The crow could smell it from here: musk and dirt from walking the earth wafted into his nose, and TastyAce held his nose. Then the foot slowly started to descend onto the tiny micro. The humongous, blue appendage is sweaty and wet-looking, sporting four clawed toes that look threateningly sharp. Behind the toes is a calloused heel threatens to stomp everything in its path. But even with the knowledge that he will certainly die, TastyAce is frozen to the spot.

The foot lands in front of him with a massive /BOOM!/ The ground shakes; TastyAce is thrown up in the air; his house trembles and furniture inside it collapses. But the foot didn't land on TastyAce, so that's good, ri--

Two toes snap up the crow, and he finds himself suddenly clenched between Justin's big toe and second toe. The smell from here is stronger than ever, and TastyAce wants to hold his nose, but his arms are stuck to his sides. He can only watch as the god lifts his foot high into the air, higher now, even higher! Soon the trees are nothing but specks, and TastyAce is reeling at the height.

Then Justin pulls his foot back and throws the crow up into the air. TastyAce is rocketed into the sky, past the clouds and into frigid temperatures, then begins to descend. Will he land on the ground, or. . .?

Oh no. TastyAce looks down and sees Justin's mouth is wide open, and right below him. The god plans to eat him! The crow panics and tries to move his position as he falls, but it's no use, and soon:

/Smack!/ He lands on the gryphon's massive tongue and is lathered in spit from the splashdown. The crow has to take a minute to recover from the fall, but before his dazed mind can recuperate, he is thrown into the mouth full force, and his life as a meal begins.

The micro is tossed from side to side in the mouth, covered in more spit than he even thought possible, and then is thrown to the back: it has to be the throat! The crow tries to run up, back to the tongue, back to the possibility he can get out! But he's too slippery, and the throat takes him, swallowing the tiny crow with one loud /gulp/.

TastyAce is squeezed tight by the throat from all sides, and all too soon he is ejected into the stomach, thrown into a massive pit of fluid and grime. The crow groans and stands up, feeling their way around the dark place. His hands land on a massive, rotting pile, and TastyAce jumps. Half-digested food--that's his fate soon.

He runs to the end of the stomach and bangs on the walls trying to give the god indigestion. But it's no use, and the liquid rises with a groan, covering the crow completely. Soon, TastyAce is no more.

And then. . .

A light, shining from above. And then he's back at in front of his house, but something is different. His body is glowing, shining bright in the forest, and his feathers are tipped white! What's going on here? Did they really die?

TastyAce looks up, and sees Justin there. The gryphon bends down with a grin.

"Welcome to godhood, TastyAce."
