Hell is for the Happy

In the Elysian Lounge an exclusive virtual salon five souls enact their nightly rituals of seduction patronage and psychological warfare. A performer a predator a cynic a therapist and a silent observer believe their digital masks are secure. They are wrong. Their mysterious host once a silent moderator begins a game of his own peeling back their meticulously crafted personas to expose the rot underneath. The opulent parlor twists into a tribunal the group chat into a litany of sins. An ancient judgment descends upon them and there is no logging off from this reckoning. When every lie is stripped bare and every transgression named who is worthy of salvation? In this digital purgatory some hells are self-made.
