Old art from 2011 (I don't have it all, will have to restore some damaged artworks). Part of a "Be Careful what you wish for" series involving a spellcaster trapped forever inside the neverending belly of a jealous all-powerful animal deity that commands his every attention.

In the last days of his freedom, the dark magic sage was a devout misotheist. He didn't start off this way, but into adulthood, Juno developed a supreme hatred of the giant animal gods that made and shaped the world, blaming them for every misfortune that befall humanity. Juno resented the religions that taught every man, woman and child when they die returns back to the behemoth deity that created them. He wanted to be the master of his own fate, answerable to no one, and choose his own destination. Juno wanted to be an immortal.

Orphaned when he was a baby, he had no name or family to speak of - simply another street-rat running in the slums. He was later abducted by dark mages, and made to run various errands if he wanted to live to see another sunrise. Not much different from a mafia, except they use magic instead of bullets. When he gained their trust they named him "Juno 7th", the day they took him from poverty.

The initiation that followed was painful - warping and twisting his very spirit so he could use, store and steal magical energies from nature. Through it all, Juno hated how he had no free-will. A mage in his own right, yes, but he was still a nobody in the hierarchy, forced to do his master's dirty work. A lifetime of servitude as a mortal, an eternity spelunking in the belly of whichever animal god made him. as a disembodied spirit. Was this all there was to life? He couldn't stand it. The man felt oppressed for he simply had to be whatever the world decided he would be, and everything that went wrong was always his fault, naturally. He tried and failed many times to start movements, organisations, gain allies, rise in the ranks, to get the peoples of this world to rebel against the god-creators.

No one was so foolish to listen to his rantings of course. An animal deity has more power in one limb or tail than the entire world's sorcerers, armies and weapons all put together. History proved that much that any civilization consumed with arrogance and delusional, would eventually get consumed by the real undeniable masters of nature. But eventually his blasphemy attracted not just the attention the Church, but also a travelling divine bovine. The Goddess Glory, was enraged! She destroyed the entire city he was preaching in as a warning. She gave Juno an ultimatum - any further transgression would result in him being devoured alive by her, and as further punishment, Glory would forbid all the cows across the land to give any milk for an entire generation. Not one single drop. Considering him a liability, the occult tried to have the renegade Juno assassinated.

Juno fled the growing wrath of god beast and men alike, wandering the wilderness and nearly went mad. There he came upon the Goddess Destiny. She bestowed long life and health upon whoever she deemed worthy. He despised the happy splendid sight of her. Towering and majestic. Her snow-white coat covering awesome muscles that could unmake a continent with but a gesture. An ivory tower of a horn that could bring a universe into being. Golden shining eyes, horn, hooves, mane and tail. He wanted to steal her immortality, or at least "rage against the heavens" before an untimely death.

The man scaled the divine gigantic unicorn as she stomped across the forest in her merry trotting and gander, completely lost in thoughts of her own magnificence and perfection. Massive trees snapped like matchsticks under her. Destiny didn't even notice her stowaway's presence as he climbed up her vast thundering leg that crashed down onto many trees and mountaintops. Finally, he reached her warm soft "summit of hindquarters". Try as he might though, nothing was a match for her. Weapons, spellcasting, enchantments, rituals were all completely ineffectual. They broke off, or her infinite white magic in its holy abundance, cancelled out any ill-intention.

A vast wave-like spasm knocked him over - Destiny nearly jumped and reared up as she felt his truly wretched depraved soul. In that instance she read his mind, his thoughts, and turned around to face the "scowling ant" upon her enormous rump with a look of shock and surprise. An elegant beautiful face which transformed into disgust and indignation. The unicorn goddess had half-a-mind to cast this little ingrate, this filthy mortal insect off her backside and roll over him like a tremendous steamroller, or trample him underfoot with her piledriver-like columns for legs.

Then a gratifying smirk appeared on her awesome face and lips. The other half of her mind spoke. Fine – you want immortality? I will give you immortality!

Juno could do nothing as she unrolled her vast long pink slobbery tongue and it slide across her whopping neck, down over her capacious back and towards him like an unstoppable pink pyroclastic flow. She captured, licked and slurped him right off her back and up into her mighty mouth effortlessly. He fought back, as she expected him to. But no mortal is a match for a deity. How foolish. Like a drop of water trying to overcome the ocean itself. Destiny swished him around her cavern of flesh playfully until her belly demanded the sacrifice, and the unicorn god given into her own volition for the inevitable gulp. The mage tried to break free, but could not contend with her will as she titled her massive head back and swallowed. Forced down by her long tongue into her pulsating tunnel of a throat with a powerful gulp, and squirted out into her eagerly-awaiting infinite stomach, the misotheist found himself in her depths and clutches.

Now in a state of temporal flux bestowed upon him by this nature goddess, he cannot age, he doesn't need to sleep or eat. He can never ever die. The cruel irony dawned upon him as he wandered the endlessly changing endlessly appearing "landscape" of her multiple stomachs. One pink cavern after another. He was immortal – but only because he was imprisoned inside a god beast who sustained his lifeforce. In his rage and howling frustration, he tried to futilely punch her vast fleshy churning lining into submission.

In his efforts to make Destiny throw him up, Juno found to his dismay and chagrin instead Destiny was indestructible inside and out - the giant unicorn was laughing beyond an infinity of undying unending flesh and tissue far beyond his prison – a wonderous melodious sound of snorting and giggling that echoed around the mountains. The gargantuan goddess was merely being tickled by his attacks, her great rear leg often recoiling in a reflex.

She had him forever, she was his Destiny, and she was going to enjoy every single day being his almighty jailor and tormentor, from now to eternity.
