Hey guys! Author & Voices of DD & Nergal here just wanting to say thank you for checking out this story & showing as much love as you do for Sturgeon. Tomorrow marks 2 years since my dad passed so the timing of this release is impeccable. Cannot thank Ronnie enough for his timing and his friendship. He is a truly wonderful human being & Rom knocked it out of the park as always. Dry your eyes, hug your loved ones & have a wonderful rest of your week - TJ
Intense. Spent my 20s married to my dying wife, 3 years on hospice. I got a solid decade with her. Im 32 now. This one hit hard. Well done friend, beautiful.
Letting go isn't easy. I lost my husband 4,5 years ago, after 23 years together. He struggled with depression for a long time, depression won. This story really hit hard.
That’s really sad to hear. I can’t imagine what it’s like to watch the person that you love more than anything just wither away right in front of you and there’s absolutely nothing you can do about it 💔 I really hope that you have found some kind of peace after her passing. You will be reunited soon enough,she is waiting for you in a better place now and may she RIP ❤️
Hello everyone! how is your day going? i hope youre staying cool this summer, its already 100 degrees where i am haha. Here are some of my songs i used in this story!

Ive been listening to horror stories like this since i was a kid and the worst part honestly is that being an adult in a relationship now makes listening to these stories hit a lot closer to home 💀 like where you self insert into stories and it suddenly feels a lot more personal lmao Edit: after fully listening to this dude Jesus christ it was so pretty I hate being reminded that I have emotions 😭
Nothing like listening to a new Story at 3 AM at Work and crying like a little Baby next to your coworker. Thanks for helping me release some pent up emotions whenever you narrate a Story that's Hits right in the feels
Going through a break up right now. That was heavy. Chaotic. Beautifully Touching. Poetic. And warm. You don't do death love stories very often. Thank you for this!❤
For real, me too. But the fact that it made you want to hug your BF means it resonated on the right level. A great story makes you cherish life and relationships. This was well done.
Just finished watching this and I am in tears. You guys did an amazing job on this one like you always do! But I am genuinely in tears after how hard this one hit. Well done!
@@cempionu_aisbergai yeah but sometimes they fuck it up big time. Spoiler Alert for other story: Like in that story on the tunels dimension where he survives and wishes to be with his family and instead of escaping the hell he is in, but his wish drags his family in the same hell with him.
I struggle with the idea of mortality daily , and i feel like this story put things in a different perspective for me honestly . Amazing as always Ronnie❤
@@try44remember how he keeps getting asked “is this what SHE would want?” And instead of him going to ask her or thinking of her, he instead says “I don’t want….” He’s been completely selfish and his morality has come into question multiple times. Morality is subjective… most think that anyway.
Cried like a baby with this one... My wife is sick. Not terminally ill, thankfully, but very sick regardless. Some days it's difficult for her to get out of bed because of the pain and exhaustion. Stories like these, where the protagonists will do anything to make their loved ones feel like who they were before illness took them, hit hardest because I would do anything to give my wife a healthy body so she could dance, and cook, and go nice places again. I love her dearly and am terrified of losing her some day too, so this story was painfully relatable.
Leaving comment for engagement to make up for the fact that I had to nope out almost immediately. I went back and forth on hearing descriptions of my real life in a horror story, and decided, maybe not today.
Really sorry for your loss @TJ; it's crazy how a loss 2 years, 5 years, 15 years ago can randomly feel like yesterday in certain circumstances. Thank you for sharing your immense talent with all of us...
Oh how I cried, how I so helplessly listened and let the tears fall totally afraid a coworker was going to walk by. I’ve dabbled in a lot of stories about the topic of grief and loss and this one just happens to take the cake. Absolutely well told and the music, voices and pacing with the music really complemented this story and the author! I can hope to love someone as fiercely as Jasper did
Life does not end here my fellow, this system of things ends and a paradise will begins in which your wife will no longer be in pain, she will dance, cook and live forever with you. Read Mathew my friend, do not fear the end Jehovah loves him children.
Hi Ronnie, long time listener here since the original Left Right Game upload. I have a suggestion I'm curious if you'd entertain! I've listened to your content to get through workdays for years now, and I actually have some coworkers interested enough now that we listen to your uploads over speakers in the shop now. The only thing thats been a challenge to me is picking stories that's everyone's into, because you can never tell what you're getting into from the title. It would be really nice to add to the description the genre or base theme of the story so we can get an idea of what we're in for! I've always read ahead in the comments to get an idea of genre of the story and presented the group with something like 'pick a theme: scifi moon base, somethings in the house, or alone in the woods' for everyone to pick from. Thought it wouldn't hurt to throw the idea your way. Love your work!
This is still my favorite story by TJ lea, I'm surprised you are covering it, the music and sound Design in dusklights video is perfect it made me actually emotional. Anyways I'm glad more people will get to hear this.
First of all, thank you for not going with the typical Devil/Hell deal trope authors constantly gravitate to! Sometimes with an enemy like Death that we can never hope to defeat on our own, we strive to make sense of it, reconcile it's existence to our sensibilities by inculcating it into our consciousness asa natural part of life, or even a benevolent guide, instead of seeing it for the sinister villain it truthfully is. Even so, this was BEAUTIFULLY written and exquisitely performed!!!! The artistic brilliance on full display here is a prime example of what is possible when three seasoned narrative thespian titans bring their A game to a project!!! You need to understand that there are those of us that would absolutely rather LISTEN to a world you create, than WATCH one with all the visual spectacle modern technology has to offer!!!! You. Are. THAT. GOOD. Thank you all for sharing your extraordinary talent with all of us!!!!
Immediately I'm crying my eyes out! ❤ 47 mins in now and bawling. Finished it. BRAVO Ronnie, Rom, and Dusk! Absolutely fantastic emotional rollercoaster and a beautiful ending! Well done, well done.
I haven’t finished the story so haven’t reached this part yet, but isn’t it possible the writer is referring to Nergal, Mesopotamian god of death and disease? Yknow, bad crops and plagues being “the hand of Nergal”? en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nergal
Bro is there more to this storyline? It feels like one of those stories that can go to darker areas or lighter areas with Dee Dee as part guide and friend.
This is one of my absolute favorites so far. It really resonates with me especially knowing where it comes from for TJ. I lost my mom almost 14 years ago and that shit still hurts beyond comprehension as she was the most important person in the world to me (aside from my son, of course). It's a bond that can't be replicated and so you grieve. I lost my husband a little more than 5 years ago, making me a widow at 35. That definitely wasn't in the gameplan! It was sudden and so the grief was gradual because it took time for the shock to start fading away. The grief for the loss of the most important people in our lives feels monumental and neverending, and in some ways that's not wrong, but time is truly a gift in these cases. It often feels like a curse but honestly it's the only thing that's pulled me forward (and my son, of course, again, and most importantly). Anyways, this was beautiful and I felt it to my soul ❤
I love a story were the husband/boyfriend isnt so focused on his partners looks. You can tell the author really cared about making her an actual person that is to be loved and cared about and not just "something pretty to look at and that why i married her" that most writers often go to when it comes to female characters. Its really refreshing to see and gives me hope for the rest of the story.
This was a wonderful story of learning to accept loss. It’s really kind of funny I come across this now, while so much is happening with my grandma. She’s isn’t dying necessarily, but she has dementia and has been somewhat sick recently. I have a tendency to push away those that I’m about to lose inevitably, a similar pattern showed up in the weeks leading up to my brother being shipped off to basic training for the Air Force. This story coming to me now is just another strange message from the universe that I shouldn’t let my habits dictate how I spend, or don’t spend, my time with my grandma.
Not even gonna act like I'm not here crying my eyes out, because I absolutely am. This was so beautiful, and the narration was impeccable as always. Wonderful job!!
Another masterpiece from the mind of TJ Lea. As in many of TJs stories, so full of religious iconography. Golgotha, sacrifice, redemption. Truly a beautiful story. Thank you, Ronnie... fantastic job, as always. Thanks to you, Rom an TJ. It truly is appreciated!

I beyond love this type of horror. The melancholy of tragedy. I haven’t even listened yet. I heard the first 10 seconds and cannot wait because I just know! I also love that you love these types of stories so I can have a wonderful voice to come listen to! I’ll edit this once I’m done with the video.
Very good story idea Ronnie. This is going to be a good one. I'm only 5 minutes in but i can tell when it's over i won't be the same. GUYS: After the story is over, put the phone down, go to the gym. Then build something out of either metal or wood. Whatever works for you, build a skill. Learn a craft that makes you a better provider and protector. Learn how to properly sharpen your pocket knife. , go to the range and learn how to Accurately shoot a handgun and a rifle. As well is maintaining them. Eat clean. No more junk food, fast food or soda Completely eliminate or drastically cut down your sugar and carb intake, you'll thank me later. Pay down any debt you have. Focus on your savings instead of buying crap you don't need from Amazon. Learn to work on your own vehicles. The goal is to become as self-sufficient And independent as possible. There is real power and freedom being in control Of what you can control in your life . Bad times are on the horizon. Be the best man. You can be not only for yourself, but your current or future wife and children
Hey guys! When you're done watching this video, come back down to this comment if you would? I'm a new narrator, and I've been inspired by darksomnium, Mr creepypasta, Jordan grupe, and lighthouse. I do all my own recording, editing, I use sound effects and music, and I do my best to use a bunch of different, but believable, voices. Some of my more recent work has not been picked up by the algorithm and it's kind of bumming me out😅 so maybe drop in and say hello after this story!
When my dad was suffering from cancer and was in hospice, all I wanted for him was the suffering to stop. That should be an option when someone is that far gone. Either they can make the decision if they are lucid, or a loved one if they are too far gone. We do it for our pets, why not our human loved ones? If the terminal, why drag out the suffering? It’s not fair. Quality of life is much more important than quantity.
We all age. We all die. We all rot. The greatest gift of all is accepting that we have such a limited time on this earth and should spend every single moment cherishing that. There is no escaping the end, but the time we do have is ours. This was an absolutely heartbreaking reading, but reminded me why Grandfather Nurgle loves us all. Spread joy friends, make your time count.
Beautiful story. This is pretty much what I felt and would have done to be able to keep my husband, if supernatural only was real.. Letting go isn't easy.
I love the story.. (The one pretty Nergal representation I ever read/head, whiiii~~) but by GAWD do I HATE this protagonist. This isn’t romantic or heroic, no, the sixth month is just pure selfishness. *spoiler* How could he even think that trading his own soul for Amelia’s is a good idea. The living always have it worse. He would have condemned her to the grief he was supposed to bear, dor what? Surely not for Amelia to have a nice life down the line. No, no, he just couldn’t live with his own grief. It’s been a while since a protag made me this frustrated and angry. It’s a good thing. When a story evokes intense emotions, it’s a great story- major kudos to the writer. Another major kudos to you and the crew for the amazing narration. Reading the comments also surprised me. People thinking the protag was romatic and lovely… and I’m here like ‘how could he even consider’ haha. Anywhom, there goes my nap, I got way too invested in the story to fall asleep. I LOVE that! Thank you! 🥰
"Death is a reunion" is quite possibly one of the most beautiful and saddest statements ive ever heard. And how i will look at it going forward from now on. Mc didnt find it strange that DD knew his name from the jump? This was really a sad one. I get that love makes people do the craziest things. But you gotta let life play out. Its not a conspiracy. Its the universe's purpose. At least he found out theres something after death. We dont get to know that in reality. Just blind faith
This story hit very different to any other creepy pasta, im 22.. married to my highschool sweetheart, and she’s been having extreme health issues, to the point Im scared I don’t have much longer with her. But this story really is beautiful, if only I could get the same chance
I heard Nurgle an had to rewind to were he said it at just to make sure i heard one of the chaos gods names. Huge Warhammer 40k nerd!! Lol can't freaking wait till Space Marine 2 comes out!!!!
this was crazy impactful!!! it explored a lot of fears i have as a woman with epilepsy and what i fear my partners would have if i had a life threatening seizure or some mind impairment. it's scary to think about and it was cathartic to listen to a story about it. really good listen and i enjoyed the ending
No offense to the author or your narration. But a lot of these stories try too hard to be emotional and sad, but to me they just end up boring as hell. These so-called creepy pastas actually end up being lifetime network or hallmark channel sentimental tales which should be a totally separate category. Just because something is sad, emotional, or somewhat relatable doesn't make it a good or interesting story.
Didn’t expect to be holding tears back on the sales floor in front of customers today. I’m glad I heard it though haven’t been able to feel any emotions lately and this sliced through my apathy so bittersweet.
It sounds to me, he gave him a weird version of OCD. Living in fear and terror is horrific, but I do understand why he’d be willing to for someone he loves.
My cousin and best friend committed suicide Tuesday before last. Sometimes stories are more than just a piece of fiction to enjoy and pass the time. Sometimes (like this time), stories help push you down a path you’re scared to walk but need to. Goodbye Rico, you were loved and there will never be another person like you. I’ll never be the same but I’ll keep living the way you would want me to. Love you cuzzo.
Toward the end when his wife said "you'll want to tell me something, but I won't be there." hurts so much. I lost my dad last year and there's so much I want to tell him. These types of stories hurt so much, but I also love them so dearly because they remind me of my dad and my friends who have passed and all my memories of them. Thank you for narrating this story.
