FSS – Secrets

 

Fandango’s Story Starter #55

This week’s prompt from Fandango’s Story Starter:

People trust me with their secrets, but if they really knew me…

People trust me with their secrets, but if they really knew me they’d think twice before handing me the keys to their soul.

I am one of the immortal ancients. My job from the beginning of time has been to glean information from humankind. I am the keeper of secrets. I’ll never reveal what I’ve learned, but I am appointed to influence others for good or evil at my discretion. It’s interesting to learn the truths (or lies) that are in minds of mortals.

That little small voice inside your head? That’s me.

That guilt you feel? I just wanted to see how you handled it.

You are all puppets on my stage. I am the master of illusion and trickery. You may ask my name … I go by many … call me what you will.

But before I go, remember and think twice before revealing yourself and your secrets to me.
