Snake Honey

8点∀ Snake Honey

[Short Story]

A snake finds way to make his venom into honey. He starts with his rattle on his tail, somehow by mimicking the buzzing of the bees his fangs began to produce honey. This honey could cure all wounds but started out as a poison. Those who would take from the snake without permission would suffer dire consequences. Those who did not ask the snake for anything, those were who the snake wanted to give honey too. And for them, this honey would grant them the ability to be stuck in a trance a high that was not a high but a new way of seeing the world. Some would say not to eat the honey for if you do it would hypnotize you and you would get stuck in the lust of wanting to eat the honey forever and never find it.

This feeling would bring you to a world of love where you must learn to navigate it by the senses the honey granted. Eventually the Snake meets a young boy, and when he gave the boy honey to eat he notices the boys radiation stay with him instead of disburse into the atmosphere. He secretly followed the boy after that, and whenever the snake found the boy was losing himself in the atmosphere he used the honey once more to bring the boy back down to earth. The boy learns many lessons, some big, some small but all in all, his journey of constant mistake was actually blessings in disguise to lead him to what would help his fangs to produce honey. (All other candidates that could not handle the honey turned into snakes forced to live without honey all their days. Until the person proclaimed to find their Honey would appear and make them human again once more.)
