Awakened with no memory in a world built on a god's corpse. Raxri's past is a murder mystery. Their future is a revolution.

GOD OBLITERATING VAJRA is a gritty blend of mud-and-lotus philosophy and kris-and-talisman action.

the fundaments of whorl's cosmology

the black circle is the masses—masses of interdependent, intercrossing, contingent phenomena that are Real. it is black because it is Nothing. some call it God or Love

the white rectangle—the throne. it is empty. Nothing sits atop it.

a rectangle beneath a filled circle. the words: REACH VIOLENCE. NO MUD NO LOTUS.

and NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN above the circle.

this is the truth of the whorl

GOD OBLITERATING VAJRA is kinda like if you did a vengeance wuxia story but in a maoist southeast asian lens instead of the usual imperial era lens and also if the world was suspiciously like our world in post-capitalism
