If the word betrayal was a soft object and you could cut it open,what would be inside? Think about it… What if you put deceitfulness under the same knife? You could probably make a thesaurus and it would be about 300 pages long. It’s almost like reading a dark non-fiction book that could be nominated in a national book award. Both of those words are EXPLOSIVE 🧨. Living in a world full of everything you can and cannot imagine, those words may be necessary. Okay, you see I put “may” which means “unpopular fact.” Deceitfulness is a tactic that has to be learned to go head to head with a chess player that has won every competition thus far. Dealing with a human who can mix the two and use it as power has to be mastered with an unique ability. It is almost funny how I write a story about these two words and it starts to sound like a warning or a survival guide to humanity. Maybe this what happens when you cut open BETRAYAL and DECEITFULNESS..
