The animal was never meant to be caught. Adélękẹ was a ruined man with nothing left to lose — until he found it, trapped and glowing in the dark, and a god stepped out of the ground to warn him what it would cost. He chose wrong. Or he chose right. Even the gods aren't sure yet. A Yoruba-rooted fantasy about the wagers gods play with broken men — and what it costs to win one.
