Grotesque A Gothic Epic, micro~commentary: The Biblical Story of the Fall of Angels and the Nephilim, and the subsequent Great Deluge, or Flood Myth, was the greatest and oldest recorded Gothic epic tale in all of Human History. It is mentioned all throughout Scripture, and has a foundation in both the Book of Enoch, and the Book of Genesis. This work is merely a sliver of its fantastical retelling and adaptation, introducing a Nephilim~spawned outcast Eljo. or Elioud, and grotesque, named Lazarus Gogu, who survives nearly impossible headwinds to keep his faith while saving the world from a second certain destruction and Armageddon. This work falls under multiple sub~genres, including gothic grotesque and alternate history.
